And though we stumble from the edge
G D/F# Em A
Our bottle gone, we drank the dregs
A Bm G D
Our fingers still cling to the ledge

We need each other now.

As borders crumble land and sea

Bored with i- de- ol-o-gy
A Bm G D
The skinhead and the refugee

We need each other now.

Rise up, rise up you hopeful men.

And women who might try again!

And with one voice your message send.

We need each other now

Everywhere mistrust and doubt

And one by one, our lights go out

And while we sit upon trhe fence
G D/F# Em A
In harmony and dissonance
A Bm G D
The bells toll out intolerance

We need each other now

And women who might try again!
