Em Cadd9 G
She's holding a torch in her hand
Em Cadd9 G
Pointing towards Heaven
Am Cadd9 G Dsus4/F#
And on the streets below her, people living out of trashcans
Am Cadd9 D
Are trying to believe she's got a plan
Em Cadd9 G
We dug a hole under the sea
Em Cadd9 G
But nobody knows how to stop the bleed
Am Cadd9 G Dsus4/F#
There's nine hundred and ninety nine channels on my TV
Am Cadd9 D
And I still have no idea what to believe
Chorus:
G
There is a choice
Cadd9 D
Follow the lea-der
G
Or use your voice
Cadd9 D
Cause this will just keep up
Em D/F# G
Until we make a loud noise
Cadd9 D
And the hidden ones speak up
Em Cadd9 G x1
Em Cadd9 G
Over the water to the east
Em Cadd9 G
Two million in a square refuse to sleep
Am Cadd9
Till every pleading voice is heard
G Dsus4/F#
And all the world has seen
Am Cadd9 D
Revolution: pull a king down to his knees
Chorus:
G
Cause they made a choice
Cadd9 D
Not to follow the lea-der
G
But use one voice
Cadd9 D
Shows ordinary peo-ple
Em D/F# G
Can make a really loud noise
Cadd9 D
When the hidden ones speak up
Interlude/Bridge:
D9/B [x20202] Am G
D9/B [x20202] Am Cadd9 (Strum)
Ohhhh hear once voice, hear one voice. He started drinking -
G
too young
Em Cadd9 G
Tucked in to his jeans now is a gun
Am Cadd9
And the stories of his ancestors
G Dsus4/F#
They will never be sung
Am Cadd9 D
For he is going where they do not see the sun
Em G Cadd9
Ah but look, there's a circus in town
Em G Cadd9
Watch as the lion eats the clown
D Em Cadd9
Tell me who out there is leading on the ground?
D Em Cadd9
Who will catch the boy before he drowns?
D Em Cadd9
If they're busy putting shows on for the crowd?
Chorus:
G
There is a choice
Cadd9 D
You can follow the lea-der
G
Or use your voice
Cadd9 D
Cause this will just keep up
Em D/F# G
Until we make a loud noise
Cadd9 D
And the hidden ones speak up
