Chords
[Verse 1]
C#5 When faith alone is not eB5nough,
To keep our F#5heads barely aC#5bove,
We look for reason and come B5up emptyF#5handed.
C#5 And when our children fight our B5wars,
While we sit F#5back just keeping C#5score,
We're teaching murder not B5underF#5standG#5ing A5now.
[Chorus]
We're E5setting the C#5fires to light the A5way,
We're E5burning it C#5all to begin aA5gain,
With E5hope in our B5hearts and F#5bricks in our A5hands,
We E5sing for C#5change B5
[Verse 2]
C#5 The lives our buried sons have B5laid,
Won't cancel F#5debts we've yet to C#5pay,
In death, we justify B5anyF#5thing now,
C#5 As long as we blindly oB5bey and do eF#5xactly what they C#5say,
We'll have no one to blame,B5 but ourF#5selves G#5now.
[Chorus]
A5 We're E5setting the C#5fires to light the A5way,
We're E5burning it C#5all to begin aA5gain,
With E5hope in our B5hearts and F#5bricks in our A5hands,
We E5sing for C#5change
[Bridge]
We run on the fumes of injustice,
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us,
C#5 Keep it E5coming 'cause I'mB5 preF#5pared to burn,
C#5 Keep E5running, find B5me at F#5every C#5turn.
E5Your B5lifeF#5 around,
C#5 E5 B5 F#5 So C#5turn E5your B5lifeF#5 around,
C#5 E5 B5 F#5 G#5
[Chorus]
A5 We're E5setting the C#5fires to light the A5way,
We're E5burning it C#5all to begin aA5gain,
With E5hope in our B5hearts and F#5bricks in our A5hands,
We E5sing for C#5change B5 C#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5
