[Verse 1]
 
 D#m                   B 
Warm yourself by the fire, son
          C#               G# 
And the morning will come soon.
 D#m                          B 
I’ll tell you stories of a better time,
        C#               D#m 
In a place that we once knew.
 
 D#m 
Before we packed our bags
     B              C#              G# 
And left all this behind us in the dust,
 D#m                           B 
We had a place that we could call home,
        C#               D#m 
And a life no one could touch.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              D#m 
Don’t hold me up now,
                F# 
I can stand my own ground,
                   C# 
I don’t need your help now,
                 B 
You will let me down, down, down!
              D#m 
Don’t hold me up now,
                F# 
I can stand my own ground,
                   C# 
I don’t need your help now,
                 B                      B ~
You will let me down, down, down!       Down!
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
 D#m                          B 
We are the angry and the desperate
      C#                     G# 
The hungry, and the cold,
 D#m                        B 
We are the ones who kept quiet,
            C#               D#m 
And always did what we were told.
 D#m                                 B 
But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm,
        C#              G# 
In the safety of your home.
 D#m                          B 
We’ve been pulling out the nails that hold up
 C#                  D#m 
Everything you’re known.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              D#m 
Don’t hold me up now,
                F# 
I can stand my own ground,
                   C# 
I don’t need your help now,
                 B 
You will let me down, down, down!
              D#m 
Don’t hold me up now,
                F# 
I can stand my own ground,
                   C# 
I don’t need your help now,
                 B 
You will let me down, down, down!
 
 
[Bridge]
 
 G#m           F# 
So open your eyes child,
                G#m 
Let’s be on our way.
                    F# 
Broken windows and ashes
                G#m 
Are guiding the way.
                F# 
Keep quiet no longer,
                        E 
We’ll sing through the day,
                        D#m 
Of the lives that we’ve lost,
                        B       F#   C# 
And the lives we’ve reclaimed.
 
Go!
