G#m
C#m
Against all odds, got to survive
E
G#m
C#m
Trying so hard to stay alive
E
G#m
We're everyday people,
E
G#m
C#m
Working hard to live from day to day
And taking what this world
E
G#m
Looks like we're not in control
C#m
E
We're all actors playing a role
C#m
E
Cause the sys tem is cold as ice
C#m
E
But some paying the devil's price
E
G#m
Cause only love alone can save the day
E
G#m
Soon all the bridges will be burning
the table from turning
G#m
And the shackles that they chained us with
C#m
E
Now today's a new age whip
C#m
E
that the system is cold as ice
C#m
E
But some paying the devil's price
E
G#m
That only love alone can save the day
C#m

And set all things right
G#m
C#m
Help our soul, help our soul,
E
G#m
C#m
help our soul, help our soul
E
G#m
C#m
We everyday people, trying hard to survive
E
G#m
And if you ask us how we make it
C#m
E
A giant sense of guide are you and I
no matter how much time
E
G#m
Still I know this fire's not in vain,
C#m
E
so I call upon my father's name
E
G#m
tables from turning
C#m
E
Young ones are crying, all is ending
G#m
C#m
And the shackles that they chained us with,
C#m
E
I know it cause I feel it
C#m
E
Cause this system is cold as ice
G#m
And every man has got their debt to pay
C#m
E
And some payin' the devil's price
E
G#m
Cause only love alone will save the day
C#m
E
And set all things right
G#m
Yes, the shackles that you chained us with
C#m
E
Now today a new age whip
C#m
E
We know it cause we feel it
that you chained us with
C#m
E
Now today a new age make
E
G#m
And every man has got the death to pay
C#m
E
In the deepest, darkest night
