[Verse 1]
C#5                     B5
When faith alone is not enough

            F#5           C#5
To keep our heads barely above

                            B5       F#5
We look for reason and come up empty-handed

C#5                             B5
And when our children fight our wars

             F#5               C#5
While we sit back just keeping score

                          B5    F#5     A5
We're teaching murder not understanding now
[Chorus]
      E5          C#5                A5
We're setting the fires to light the way

      E5         C#5                A5
We're burning it all to begin again

     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands

   E5       C#5
We sing for change
[Verse 2]
C#5                            B5
The lives our buried sons have laid

            F#5                C#5
Will cancel debts we've yet to pay

                     B5  F#5
How could we justify anything now

C#5                    B5          F#5              C#5
As long as we blindly obey and do exactly what they say

                     B5           F#5          A5
We'll have no one to blame but ourselves now
[Chorus]
      E5          C#5                A5
We're setting the fires to light the way

      E5         C#5                A5
We're burning it all to begin again

     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands

   E5       C#5
We sing for change
[Verse 3] N.C. We run on the fumes of injustice N.C. We'll never die with the fuel that you give us
C#5     E5           B5      F#5           C#5
Keep it coming cause I'm prepared to burn

     E5           B5     F#5      C#5
Keep running from me at every turn
[Bridge]
E5   B5   F#5
Your life around

C#5        E5         B5       F#5
(into something true, into something true)

   C#5  E5   B5   F#5
So turn your life around

 C#5   E5        B5   F#5  G#5  A5
(into something true, something true)
[Chorus]
      E5          C#5                A5
We're setting the fires to light the way

      E5         C#5                A5
We're burning it all to begin again

     E5          B5         F#5           A5
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands

   E5       C#5
We sing for change
