   C     Am     F       Gx1
The Cshow was Amover it's Gall in the Cname
It Cnever was bAmefore but Gthis ain't the Csame
So Ctry to iAmmagine a tGime and a Cplace
Where the Cenemy Amwon and the Fhero Gwas Cslain
And poetic justice burns in the minds
Of five diying soldiers on the front lines
With nobody's singing in nobody's ears
No one's disappointed, nobody hears
I know a lady, promise her name
The price of her visit suffering and pain
And we gladly waited and we gladly paid
We watched the sun rise, she never came
An electric current moves us around
We sank to our knees to worship the sound
But nobody told us that we'd rise again
Imagine a hero unable to win 
Imagine a hero unable to win

The show was over it's all in the name
