[Intro]
Em D
C B7 Em D
As a child you would wait
[Verse 1]
C B7
And watch from far away.
Em D
But you always knew that you'd be the one
C B7
That work while they all play.
Em D
In youth you'd lay
C B7
Awake at night and scheme
Em D
Of all the things that you would change,
C B7
But it was just a dream!
[Chorus]
Em G C B7
Here we are, don't turn away now,
Em G C B7
We are the warriors that built this town.
Em G C B7
Here we are, don't turn away now,
Em G C B7
We are the warriors that built this town
Em
From dust.
[Verse 2]
D
Will come
C B7
When you'll have to rise
Em D
Above the best and prove yourself,
C B7
Your spirit never dies!
Farewell,
Em D C B7
I've gone to take my throne above,
Em
But don't weep for me
D
'Cause this will be
C B7
The labor of my love
[Chorus]
Em G C B7
Here we are, don't turn away now,
Em G C B7
We are the warriors that built this town.
Em G C B7
Here we are, don't turn away now
Em G C B7
We are the warriors that built this town
Em
From dust.
