GWarm yourself by the Csus4fire son, And the D5morning will come Csus4soon. GI'll tell you stories of a Csus4better time, In a D5place that we once Csus4knew. GBefore we packed our bags and Csus4left all this, BeD5hind us in the Csus4dust, GWe had a place that we could Csus4call home, And a D5life no one could Csus4touch.
CHORUS
Don't hold me Em7up now, I can stand my Gown ground I don't need your D5help now, You won't let me Csus4down, down, down, Don't hold me Em7up now, I can stand my Gown ground I don't need your D5help now, You won't let me Csus4down, down, down, down...

GWe are the angry and the Csus4desperate, The D5hungry and the Csus4cold. GWe are the ones who kept Csus4quiet, And always D5did what we were Csus4told. GBut we've been sweating while you Csus4slept so calm, In the D5safety of your Csus4home. GWe've been pulling out the Csus4nails that hold up, D5Everything you've Csus4known.

Broken windows and Gashes are guiding the Amway. Keep quiet no Glonger, we'll sing through the F/Cday, Of the lives that we've Emlost, and the lives we've reCsus4claimed. G5 D5
