Em D
As a child, you would wait
C B7
and watch from far away.
Em D
But you always knew that you'll be
C B7
the one that work while they all play.
Em D
And you, you lay,
C B7
awake at night and scheme
Em D
of all the things that you would change,
C B7
but it was just a dream.
[Chorus]
Em G C B7
Here we are, don't turn away now,

Here we are, don't turn away now,

we are the warriors that built this town

to take my throne above,

the labor of my love
