I noticed there is no accurate tab of this masterpiece on UG, and I think it's a shame not to have it... So here is the complete tab, hope it's fine. Please rate and comment. Long live the Godmother of punk! ...and a big "thank you" to all those people who are patient and spend a bit of their time to leave a comment and make this tab better, [Verse 1]
        D              G
I was dreaming in my dreaming

       D                 G
Of an aspect bright and fair

         D                G
And my sleeping, it was broken 

         D                G
But my dream it lingered near

        D               G
In the form of shining valleys 

           D             G
Where the pure air recognised

        D           G
And my senses newly opened

     D             G
I awakened to the cry
[Pre-Chorus]
         F#m              G
That the people have the power

       D               Em
To redeem the work of fools

         F#m               G
Upon the meek the graces shower

         D                A
It's decreed, the people rule
[Chorus]
                D     G   
People have the power

                Em      A
People have the power

                D     G
People have the power 

                Em     A
People have the power
[Interlude] / D / G / x2 [Verse 2]
         D               G
Vengeful aspects became suspect

             D            G
And bending low as if to hear

        D                G
And the armies ceased advancing

             D                G
Because the people had their ear

          D                G  
And the shepherds and the soldiers 

       D                G
Lay beneath among the stars

            D                 G
Exchanging visions and laying arms

    D            G
To waste in the dust
[Pre-Chorus]
       F#m              G
In the form of shining valleys 

           D            Em
Where the pure air recognised

        F#m           G
And my senses newly opened 

    D              A
I awakened to the cry 
[Chorus]
                D     G   
People have the power

                Em      A
People have the power

                D     G
People have the power 

                Em     A
People have the power
[Interlude] / D / G / x4 [Verse 3]
                 D              G
Where there were deserts I saw fountains 

        D              G
Like cream the waters rise 

          D              G
And we strolled there together 

              D             G
With none to laugh or criticise 

         D               G
And the leopard and the lamb 

       D            G
Lay together truly bound 

       D            G
I was hoping in my hoping 

     D                G
To recall what I had found
[Pre-Chorus]
       F#m             G
I was dreaming in my dreaming 

      D            Em
God knows a purer view 

     F#m              G
As I lay down to my sleeping 

      D               A
I commit my dream to you 
[Chorus]
                D     G   
People have the power

                Em      A
People have the power

                D     G
People have the power 

                Em     A
People have the power

               D        G
The power to dream, to rule 

     Em                    A
To wrestle the world from fools 

         D                G
It's decreed, the people rule 

         Em               A
It's decreed, the people rule 

        D                G
Listen, I believe everything we dream 

     Em                      A
Can come to pass through our union 

 D               G
We can turn the world around 

 Em              A            
We can turn the earth's revolution 

                D     G   
People have the power

                Em      A
People have the power

                D     G
People have the power 

                Em     A
People have the power

               D        G
The power to dream, to rule 

     Em                    A
To wrestle the world from fools 

         D                G
It's decreed, the people rule 

         Em               A
It's decreed, the people rule
