  			(Intro) Cm  D  Gm  Dm  Eb F 


            Gm   
You must be getting pretty tired 
       F 
Of the man who once inspired you 
      Dm                           Eb 
Going back on what he asked you to believe 
        Gm 
All the promises of power 
         F 
From his glittering ivory tower 
            Dm                                  Eb 
Where's the height that he once told you you'd achieve? 

Gm                                   F 
Those other men believe what you and I will never see 
    Dm                            Eb 
But I say why believe in place of proof? 
          Gm 
Let those others keep on praying 
    F 
You know I'm only saying 
         Dm                             Eb 
What the others are afraid might be the truth 

           Cm          D 
Well, they say nothing grows 
          Gm      F       Eb 
'Till the oak has hit the ground 
         Eb  
So let's clear the way, my boys 
             Bb                 Gm  
And let the giant come crashing down 

(Bridge) Eb  D Gm 

          Gm    
Where are all the things you fought for? 
        F 
All the dreams you shed your blood for? 
         Dm                             Eb  
Are they shabby now and fraying at the seams? 
    Gm 
Was this your boyhood vision 
      F 
To endure the world's derision 
          Dm                                 Eb 
While the culprit sits and laughs behind the scenes? 


           Cm          D 
Well, they say nothing grows 
          Gm      F       Eb 
'Till the oak has hit the ground 
         Eb  
So let's clear the way, my boys 
             F                 Gm  
And let the giant come crashing down 

(Bridge) Gm  Eb  D (x2)   
Gm  Eb  Bb  (x3)  
D 

       Gm 
Let us cleanse this force with fire 
           F 
Strike the fool who leads the liar 
       Dm                 Eb  
Let it all come crumbling down 
         Gm 
Like the firebird from the ashes 
        F 
We will rise to lead the masses 
     Dm                                Eb 
The strongest will emerge to wear the crown 


           Cm          D 
Well, they say nothing grows 
          Gm      F       Eb 
'Till the oak has hit the ground 
         Eb  
So let's clear the way, my boys 
             F                  C    Cm   D   Gm   F  Eb 
And let the giant come crashing down 

      Eb 
Let's clear the way, my boys,  
            F                   Gm         Eb        D   F   Gm 
And let the giant come crashing down
