[intro - vocal]
We are all waking up...
from a long dream...
And though we drink the same cup... 
some of us...still thirsty
[Verse] 
AmShow your heart, a show of hands, if you ve ever had a story you couldnt tell
DmWell youre not alone,
AmIt fell apart, Sinking sand, Life is hard I understand
DmI got one of my own
AmRead the book, it blew my mind, I guess I didnt see what was between the lines
DmIs where the story was
AmBroke my heart, I lost my way, All the things we stood for back in the day
DmThey aint holding up
[Bridge] 
DmSo noEw that we settled up, theres no Amfight left iDmn us
DmWe juEst got to give it up, cause we hAmave the perfDmect love
DmYeah Ejust got to give it up, cause weAmve got the pDmerfect love
[Ref]
AsusThe world keeps Aspinning round, aFsusnother suFn goes down, 
and stilGsusl we re sleepGing in this bDsused we madDe, 
Asusbut tonight I drAeam again, and in Fsusmy dream FI see 
in yGsusou no shaGme, we Dsusare the sDame
[Verse 2] 
Lost your job, times are tight, trying to hold it down, do whats right
Heavy on your mind
Got in some trouble, took a little drink, trying to wash away, the same stain
Just a cup of wine
I remember in the day when we were young, always heard a change was gonna come, 
I wonder, is it too late
We road hard on what we believed in, for every blow we gave new chin thicker skin, 
but theres a better way
[Bridge] 
Why dont we just lay the weapons down
never shoulda picked them up
Look whos the big man now, no need to act so tough
we ve got the perfect love, We ve got the perfect love 
we ve got the perfect love, we ve got the perfect love
[Ref]
The world keeps spinning round, another sun goes down
and still we are sleeping in this bed we made 
but tonight I dream again, and in my dream I see in you no shame, 
we are the same
And as we turn the tide, and learn to live 
with no disguise no blame, only love remains
and as the sun will rise, and we ll walk in the light, 
as one someday, We are oh we are
[Second bridge, or whatever its called] 
We are aAll, waking Cup, to a lGight, that we ve neFver seen 
From the Adust, risiCng up, we Gll finally see the Fsun...
(During solo, same as ref.) 
The world keeps spinning round, another sun goes down
and still we re sleeping in this bed we made 
but tonight I dream again, and in my dream I see in you no shame, 
weare the same
And as we turn the tide, and learn to live 
with no disguise no blame, only love remains
and as the sun will rise, and we ll walk in the light, 
as one someday, We are oh we are

[intro - vocal]

We are all waking up...

from a long dream...

And though we drink the same cup...

some of us...still thirsty

[Verse]

Show your heart, a show of hands, if you ve ever had a story you couldnt tell

Well youre not alone,

It fell apart, Sinking sand, Life is hard I understand

I got one of my own

Read the book, it blew my mind, I guess I didnt see what was between the lines

Is where the story was

Broke my heart, I lost my way, All the things we stood for back in the day

They aint holding up

[Bridge]

Dm E Am Dm

So now that we settled up, theres no fight left in us

Dm E Am Dm

We just got to give it up, cause we have the perfect love

Dm E Am Dm

Yeah just got to give it up, cause weve got the perfect love

[Ref]

Asus A Fsus F

The world keeps spinning round, another sun goes down,

Gsus G Dsus D

and still we re sleeping in this bed we made,

Asus A Fsus F

but tonight I dream again, and in my dream I see

Gsus G Dsus D

in you no shame, we are the same

[Verse 2]

Lost your job, times are tight, trying to hold it down, do whats right

Heavy on your mind

Got in some trouble, took a little drink, trying to wash away, the same stain

Just a cup of wine

I remember in the day when we were young, always heard a change was gonna come,

I wonder, is it too late

We road hard on what we believed in, for every blow we gave new chin thicker skin,

but theres a better way

[Bridge]

Why dont we just lay the weapons down

never shoulda picked them up

Look whos the big man now, no need to act so tough

we ve got the perfect love, We ve got the perfect love

we ve got the perfect love, we ve got the perfect love

[Ref]

The world keeps spinning round, another sun goes down

and still we are sleeping in this bed we made

but tonight I dream again, and in my dream I see in you no shame,

we are the same

And as we turn the tide, and learn to live

with no disguise no blame, only love remains

and as the sun will rise, and we ll walk in the light,

as one someday, We are oh we are

[Second bridge, or whatever its called]

A C G F

We are all, waking up, to a light, that we ve never seen

A C G F

From the dust, rising up, we ll finally see the sun...

(During solo, same as ref.)

The world keeps spinning round, another sun goes down

and still we re sleeping in this bed we made

but tonight I dream again, and in my dream I see in you no shame,

weare the same

And as we turn the tide, and learn to live

with no disguise no blame, only love remains

and as the sun will rise, and we ll walk in the light,

as one someday, We are oh we are
