Bricks

[Verse 1]
C#5                         B5
   When faith alone is not enough,
            F#5           C#5
To keep our heads barely above,
                            B5      F#5
We look for reason and come up emptyhanded.
C#5                                B5
   And when our children fight our wars,
             F#5               C#5
While we sit back just keeping score,
                          B5   F#5  G#5 A5
We're teaching murder not understanding now.

[Chorus]
      E5          C#5                A5
We're setting the fires to light the way,
      E5         C#5           A5
We're burning it all to begin again,
     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
   E5       C#5   B5
We sing for change

[Verse 2]
C#5                               B5
   The lives our buried sons have laid,
             F#5                C#5
Won't cancel debts we've yet to pay,
                     B5 F#5
In death, we justify anything now,
C#5                       B5          F#5              C#5
   As long as we blindly obey and do exactly what they say,
We'll have no one to blame,
B5       F#5    G#5
  but ourselves now.

[Chorus]
A5      E5          C#5                A5
  We're setting the fires to light the way,
      E5         C#5           A5
We're burning it all to begin again,
     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
   E5       C#5
We sing for change

[Bridge]
We run on the fumes of injustice,
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us,
C#5        E5               B5   F#5
   Keep it coming 'cause I'm  prepared to burn,
C#5     E5            B5    F#5   C#5
   Keep running, find me at every turn.
E5   B5  F#5
Your life   around,
C#5 E5 B5 F#5   C#5  E5   B5  F#5
             So turn your life   around,
C#5 E5 B5 F#5 G#5

[Chorus]
A5      E5          C#5                A5
  We're setting the fires to light the way,
      E5         C#5           A5
We're burning it all to begin again,
     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands,
   E5       C#5   B5 C#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5
We sing for change
