INTRO:
B

VERSE:
B G#m
Somebody's gonna wave a flag
B
Somebody's going to attack
C#m
Someone will tell you to take a side
E
Tell you their version of wrong or right

G#m
Somebody's gonna let you in
B
Judged on the color of your skin
C#m
Slam a door in the face of your friend
E
Simply because you don't look like him

PRE-CHORUS:
E G#m
And then you gotta find a way that you're wakin'
B
Everybody's walkin'

C#m
You gotta find the words to say when you're talkin'
E
Everybody's talkin'

CHORUS:
B
So I
D#m
Built the words

I'm hopin' someone's singing along

'Cause just one voice is not enough
G#m E
I need to hear from everyone

B D#m
And even when I'm dead and gone
G#m E B
I'm hopin' someone's singing along

VERSE:
B G#m
Somebody's gonna build a wall
B
Then smash it with a cannon ball
C#m
Someone who somehow has got a gun
E
Will tell you who you can't and you can love

G#m
Some people keeping all the cash
B
They're gonna get away with that
C#m
Just 'cause some people don't think like me
E
Does that really make them the enemy?

PRE-CHORUS:
E G#m
And then you gotta find a way that you're wakin'
B
Everybody's walkin'

You gotta find the words to say when you're talkin'

Won't you raise your voice
E
Just a little louder

Make a noise
