[Verse]
G         C                   G                    
Somewhere the bombing all has stopped  

            C                G
And people begin to sit and talk

              C           D            C                        G
And somewhere insomniatic stockbrokers can rest their bloodshot eyes

            C                      G             
Cuz there's nothing left to buy or sell    

    C                G   
Or kill or die for anymore

                            C                  D                   G
We're living for eternal moments that we've searched for all our lives

               C             G        
There's nobody living by the clock 

            C                G
And every door is left unlocked

             C        D                              G
Cuz property died all alone and capitalism lost it's home

                  C                 G        
There's plenty of fresh air here in town    

       C                G 
The plants are all growing on the cars

               C                    D   
And all of the streets are used for dancing 

                                G
and at night you see all the stars
[Chorus]
G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh   

G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh              
[Verse]
G         C                   G               
We're searching for something that was lost  

       C                G
And centuries all have covered up

                        C                D                 C        G
We're flailing to find the smallest fragments of our liberated lives

G         C                   G     
And every tiny piece that we may find  

     C                G
We pick up and glue together

              C                D        C          G
Collectively working for our utopian futures to collide

G         C                   G                     
In snuggly beds and midnight talks 

               C                       G
And wandering bike rides and wayward walks

           C              D         C             G
Making up all of our own music art myth food and news

G         C                   G 
It's happening everywhere we go     

               C                G
Collective bookstores and basement shows

            C               D                 C              G
Sharing a song that we all know or making up new ones as we go
[Chorus]
G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh   

G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh   

C                             F
I am a dream, this is real    I am a dream, you are here

C                             F
I am a dream, you are me      I am a dream we are free

C                             F
I am a dream, this is real    I am a dream, you are here

C                             F
I am a dream, you are me      I am a dream we are free
[Verse]
G         C                   G                        
Now can't you feel the ice caps grow  

                C                G
Now can't you hear the forest laugh

              C                 D                C                 G
At piles of nicely packaged toothpicks all in processed warehouse rows

G         C                   G  
Cuz the only processing we do now    

           C                G
Is with one another in our homes

              C           D            C                        G
With people we'll fight fuck laugh and cry with until the day we die

G         C                   G                
Here where we share all that we've won 

                G
Here where we grieve for what is lost

                   C               D                     C                G
Here where the children grow with names they chose and genders all their own

G         C                   G                         
Here where we celebrate each other  

                   C                G
Here where you've never had a boss

              C                    D                     C               G
Here where we sing like restless kids with half chewed food inside our mouths
[Chorus]
G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh   

G         D               C
Yada dada deeya yada dada da 

C         D     C  C   G
Yada dada da da da da duh  
[Verse]
G         C                   G                        
Here in the place outside the box   

                    C                G
There are no more borders left to cross

              C           D            C             G
From each according to ability and to each based on need

G         C                   G                      
Here in the place where dreams aren't dead   

              C                G
Here in the space between our heads
