G
Maybe we're in a mess
Bm
Maybe it's cold out there
C
It seems like a cruel test
D
This weight's too hard to bear

But maybe we'll find a way

To raise the flag again
C
It's gotten so hard to say
D
This land is our land

G
Some days you can look around
Bm
And see hope in the eyes
C
Of those who are still bound
D
To a world of bloody skies
 
G
We're gettin' tired of holdin' on
Bm
To the righteous stories
C
And the fairy tales and songs
D
And the wind that's blowin' old glory

They can take away our rights

But what makes 'me worry

They know it's in us to fight

And never trade hope for glory
