	        Am 
 One spot on an empty canvas 
F 
 One chair in an empty room 
C9 
 No place for a revolution 
G/B 
 No hope if the signs are true 
Am 
 We stand at the edge of something 
F 
 Will we ever know what it is 
C9 
 Hold on 'cause the wind is rising 
G/B 
 And we can't get away from it 

(intro) Am F C9 G/B 

Am 
 We?re in shock from the failed emotion 
F 
 No cause in a shadow land 
C9 
 We sing while the city's burning 
G/B 
 No room, no escape, no plan 
Am             F                       C9  G/B 
 We all never thought it would end this way 
              Am  F 
And we need a hero 
    C9             G/B 
To save us from ourselves

 When the sirens wail, we need a hero here 

(inter) C#5 Gm C#5 Gm C#5 Gm 

Am 
 We hide on our knees in silence 
F 
 Maybe God doesn't hear at all 
C9 
 And the wait overtakes the violence 
G/B 
 And we watch as the giants fall 
Am                F            C9   G/B 
 We're not gonna let it end this way
