G Csus4
Warm yourself by the fire son,
D5 Csus4
And the morning will come soon.
G Csus4
I’ll tell you stories of a better time,
D5 Csus4
In a place that we once knew.
G Csus4
Before we packed our bags and left all this,
D5 Csus4
Behind us in the dust,
G Csus4
We had a place that we could call home,
D5 Csus4
And a life no one could touch.
CHORUS
Em7
Don’t hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D5
I don’t need your help now,
Csus4
You won’t let me down, down, down,
Em7
Don’t hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D5
I don’t need your help now,
Csus4
You won’t let me down, down, down, down…

G Csus4
We are the angry and the desperate,
D5 Csus4
The hungry and the cold.
G Csus4
We are the ones who kept quiet,
D5 Csus4
And always did what we were told.
G Csus4
But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm,
D5 Csus4
In the safety of your home.
G Csus4
We’ve been pulling out the nails that hold up,
D5 Csus4
Everything you’ve known.
CHORUS
Em7
Don’t hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D5
I don’t need your help now,
Csus4
You won’t let me down, down, down,
Em7
Don’t hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D5
I don’t need your help now,
Csus4 Am
You won’t let me down, down, down…
BRIDGE I
(Am) G Am
So open your eyes child, lets be on our way,
G Am
Broken windows and ashes are guiding the way.
G F/C
Keep quiet no longer, we’ll sing through the day,
Em Csus4 G5 D5
Of the lives that we’ve lost, and the lives we’ve reclaimed.
