{Verse}
D#m B7M
Warm yourself by the fire, son,
C# G#m7
And the morning will come soon.
D#m B7M
I?ll tell you stories of a better time,
F#7M D#m
In a place that we once knew.
D#m
Before we packed our bags
B7M C# G#m7
And left all this behind us in the dust,
D#m B7M
We had a place that we could call home,
F#7M D#m
And a life no one could touch.

D#m
Don?t hold me up now,
F#7M
I can stand my own ground,
G#m7
I don?t need your help now,
B7M
You will let me down, down, down!
D#m
Don?t hold me up now,
F#7M
I can stand my own ground,
G#m7
I don?t need your help now,
B7M
You will let me down, down, down!
Down!
G#m7 F#
So open your eyes child,
G#m7
Let?s be on our way.
F#
Broken windows and ashes
G#m7
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,
B7M F# G#m7
And the lives we?ve reclaimed. Go!
