Our time is ever on the road, the ride is in what we make
G C
I walked a year to hear a howl in this give and take
D C G
But hear it this way, hear it this way, alright.
[Verse]
G C
The war is our hearts and blood is in the land we love
G C
We keep breaking our backs, hoping that it gives enough
D C
Oh but what do you need, what do you need
[Verse]
G C
Oh man, there's ladders to the sky, building up a high rise
G C
Oh man we won't last long but we're giving it our best try
D C
Don't you know you're alive, you know you're alive
D G
None of us save the day before it's over
[Verse]
G C
Tonight, I'm in love with everybody on the city bus
G C
I feel the push and pull, keep saying that it doesn't mean much.
D C
Oh but what do you see, what do you see
[Bridge]
G C

G C

We are the tide, we are the tide,
D G
And none of us save the day before it's over
