[Intro]
Em D Am7 C (2x)
[Verse 1]
Em D Am7 C Em
And through the fence I see a ghost of a place that used to breath.
D Am7 C
You know it choked away the sun, but we still had food to eat.
Em D
And now everyone is gone to a place that won't be home.
Am7 C
Can they keep their family strong? Will they make it on their own?
[Chorus 1]
G D Am7 C G
And we'll be standing when you're gone and we'll be heard again.
D Am7 C Em
We missed our chance but not for long I know somehow we will hold on.
D C
We'll be here, when you're gone.
[Verse 2]
Em D Am7 C Em
And then one day we realized, that they couldn't hear our voice.
D Am7 C
And it's so hard to understand, when it's caught up in the noise.
Em D
But the ones who fight and die are the truth inside the lie.
Am7 C
Now it's all built on our backs and we struggle to survive.
[Chorus 2]
G D Am7 C G
And we'll be standing when you're gone and we'll be heard again.
D Am7 C Em
We missed our chance but not for long I know somehow we will hold on.
D C
We'll be here, when you're gone.
[Interlude]
Em D Am7 C (3x)
[Chorus 3]
G D Am7 C G
And we'll be standing when you're gone and we'll be heard again.
D Am7 C Em
We missed our chance but not for long I know somehow we will hold on.
D C
We'll be here, when you're gone.
Em D C
When you're gone, we'll be here, when you're gone.
