[Intro]
Ebm
[Verse 1]
Ebm Warm yourself by the Bfire, son,
And the Dbmorning will come soon. Abm
Ebm I'll tell you stories of a Bbetter time,
In a Gbplace that we once knew. Ebm
Ebm Before we packed our bags
And Bleft all this behindDb us in the dust, Abm
Ebm We had a place that we could Bcall home,
And a lifeGb no one could touch.
Ebm Don't hold me Ebmup now,
[Chorus]
I can stand my Gbown ground,
I don't need your Dbhelp now,
You will let me Bdown, down, down!
Don't hold me Ebmup now,
I can stand my Gbown ground,
I don't need your Dbhelp now,
You will let me Bdown, down, down!
Ebm
[Down!]
[Verse 2]
Ebm We are the angry and the Bdesperate,
The hungDbry, and the cold, Abm
Ebm We are the ones who kept Bquiet,
And always didGb what we were told. Ebm
Ebm But we've been sweating while you Bslept so calm,
In the Dbsafety of your home. Abm
Ebm We've been pulling out the Bnails that hold up
EveGbrything you've known.
Ebm Don't hold me Ebmup now,
[Chorus]
I can stand my Gbown ground,
I don't need your Dbhelp now,
You will let me Bdown, down, down!
Don't hold me Ebmup now,
I can stand my Gbown ground,
I don't need your Dbhelp now,
You will let me Bdown, down, down!
[Interlude]
Abm So open your Gbeyes child,
Let's be on our Abmway.
Broken windows and Gbashes
Are guiding the Abmway.
Keep quiet no Gblonger,
We'll sing through the Eday,
Of the lives that we've Ebmlost,
And the lives we've reBclaimed. Gb Db
