Lyrics

I turn the (C)mu sic up, I got my re cords on.

I shut the (G)world out side un til the lights come on.

May be the (C)street’s a light, may be the trees are gone, but I feel my (G)heart start beat ing to my fa v’rite song.

And all the (C)kids they dance, may all the kids all night.

May Un til (G)Mon day morn ing feels an oth er life.

I turn the (Em7)mu sic up, I’m on a roll this time, and (C)heav en is in sight.

I turn the (C)the drals in my heart.

And we saw,

oh, this (G)light

I swear (Em)you

e merge (Em)blink ing in to, to (C)tell me it’s al right.

As we soar

walls...

Ev ’ry si ren is a (Em)sym

pho ny and ev ’ry tear’s a (C)wa

ter fall, is a wa ter (G)fall,

(C)oh, is a wa ter (G)fall,

oh, (is a) is a wa ter (G)fall.

Ev ’ry (C)tear (is a) is a wa ter (G)fall,

oh.

So you can’t (Dsus)hurt,

hurt (D)me bad,

but still I’ll (Bm)raise

the (G)flag.

It was a (G)wa a a a (C)a ter fall.

A (G)wa a a a (C)a ter fall.
