F C G Am
We are young, we are strong, we're not looking for where we belong
F C G Am
We're not cool, we are free, and we're running with blood on our knees
F C G Am
F C G
We could rule the world, on a silver platter
Am F
From the wrong to the right light, to an open stream
C G
With a crash and burn we could make it better
Am F
Turn it upside down, just you and me
C G Am
We are the dream, no other way to be
(Chorus)
F C G
I could rule the world, I could make it better
Am F
Kick it up and down, took a chance on me
C G
With your fake smile, and you think you're better
Am F
Gonna put it down, rip it at your feet
C G Am
No bridge to burn, nowhere to turn for me
(Chorus)
Bridge:
F G C F G Am
What do they know about us? Are they thinking of somebody else?
F E Am F G C
Are they wondering what we might be? Are they thinking of you or of me?
(Chorus, repeat and fade)
