D G
Standing, on the edge of forever
Bm
At the start of whatever
A
Shouting love at the world
D G
Back then, we were like cavemen
Bm
But we met the moon and the stars
A
Then we forgave them
Em G
We will meet you where the lights are
Bm A
The defenders, of the faith we are
Em
Where the thunder turns around
G Bm
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
Em Bm
You know no one dies
Em Bm
In these love drowned eyes
Em Bm
Through our love drowned eyes
A
We'll watch you sleep tonight
G D
Although no one understood
Bm
We were holding back the flood
A
Learning how to dance the rain
G D
We were holding back the flood
A
They said we'd never dance again
D G
Bleeding, but none of us leaving
Bm
Watch your mouth son
A
Or you'll find yourself floating home

Em G
Here we come now on a dark star
Bm A
Seeing demons, not what we are
Em
Tiny minds and eager hands
G Bm
Will try to strike but now will end today
Em G
There's progress now
Em G
Where there once was none
Em G
Where there once was none
A
Then everything came along
G D
Although no one understood
Bm
We were holding back the flood
A
Learning how to dance the rain
G D
There was more of them than us
A
Now they'll never dance again
G D
Although no one understood
Bm
There was more of them than us
A
Learning how to dance the rain
G D
We were holding back the flood
A
They said we'd never dance again
Em G
We will meet you where the lights are,
Bm A
The defenders, of the faith we are
Em
Where the thunder turns around
G Bm
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
