Chords

[Intro] G [Verse 1]
    G                             C          Em     D
The good ole days are gone in the past where they belong

      Am                  C                 G   D
Turns out they weren’t so good for everyone

     G                          C        Em     D
Tear down this house of stone I built to stand alone

      Am                   C           G           D
Cause there ain’t room for anyone, for anyone, for everyone
[Chorus]
     G
When all of the tables are turning

D
All of the bridges are burning

Em                         C            Am  Em   D
Can’t keep a heart that is hurting from breaking down

       G
But if we are the times that are changing

   D                        B7
If we are the lessons we’re learning

   Em         D             C  G/B          Am   D  G
If everyone’s someone worth saving then the time is now
[Verse 2]
  G                                C        Em    D
I grieve the things I see brothers found as enemies

      Am            C               G   D
White-knuckled disbelief in everyone

   G                      C       Em        D
Oh land of liberty shines bright enough for me

     Am                  C             G            D
When will she shine that same light on everyone, on everyone
[Chorus]
     G
When all of the tables are turning

D
All of the bridges are burning

Em                         C            Am  Em   D
Can’t keep a heart that is hurting from breaking down

       G
But if we are the times that are changing

   D                        B7
If we are the lessons we’re learning

   Em         D             C  G/B          Am   D  G
If everyone’s someone worth saving then the time is now
[Bridge]
    C
Generations pass on right and wrong

    G
The children they cry, “How long, how long”

    D                               Em                  C
Til justice flows like a river, let justice roll like a river
Generations pass, un-righted wrongs
      G
Their children they cry, “How long, how long”

    D                               Em                   C
Til justice flows like a river, til justice rolls like a river
[Chorus]
     G
When all of the tables are turning

D
All of the bridges are burning

Em                         C            Am  Em   D
Can’t keep a heart that is hurting from breaking down

       G
But if we are the times that are changing

   D                        B7
If we are the lessons we’re learning

   Em         D             C  G/B          Am   D  G
If everyone’s someone worth saving then the time is now
[Tag]
       C    D  G             C    D  G
Oh the time is now, yeah the time is now.
