I'm the seventh son, I'm the only one and I'm on the rise

And I paid my dues in the Barrios

I have a plan and they say I can't, but yes, I can

No more waiting on the sidelines

And no more hanging on a thin line 
        D      A           Bm           F#m     C#m        F#m

So people of the world just take a bow

'Cause I used to be hot, but I'm flaming now 
    D       A              A          F#m      C#m          F#m 
So hold on tight with your knuckles white 'Cause my time is coming
