Chords

G             
Hope grows between cracks in the asphault

       Em
In the downtown ghetto streets that contour 

     D                                  G
The government housing intentions of my heart
No one notices the daisies don't care
      Em
About gang related violence

                           D
As long as they get enough air and water and sun

                  C
They're all just fine

Em                                            G
Who would've thought it but life is finding a way

                                                 D
Through this wasteland of cynics, concrete, and pain

           Em
There's a man down here somewhere between

    G
The Saturday cartooons and the dirty magazines

      D
He's raising the dead in the graveyards

      C
Where we've laid down our dreams 

            G
His name is Hope 

G
Hope stands high on the 15th floor

      Em
On a Christmas tree perched about the ledge of a fortress

   D                                             G
of steel that's trying to hard to be somebody's home

                                               Em
As it sees my attention from I-85 though the throws of the day
Were still writhing inside
  D
I lifted my head as I drove home that night and knew

C
Everything was gonna be fine

Em                                            G
Who would've thought it but life is finding a way

                                                 D
Through this wasteland of cynics, concrete, and pain

           Em
There's a man down here not worried or afraid 

           G
That some politician forgot all the promises he made

          D
And he's raising the dead in the graveyards

      C
Where we've laid down our dreams 

             G
His name is Hope

               C
His name is Hope        

                      D
Everybody needs a little         x2

               C
His name is Hope        

                      D
Everybody wants a little          x2

               C
His name is Hope        

                      D
Everybody needs a little
Em G D C
           Em
There's a man down here not worried or afraid 

           G
That some politician forgot all the promises he made

          D
And he's raising the dead in the graveyards

      C
Where we've laid down our dreams 

             G
His name is Hope

G
Can you hear him outside he's been singing all night

            Em
He's saying when you gonna come out from behind

      D                                      C
These paper thin walls, your cardboard box realities
