Who Will Raise Their Voice

Am   Em  D  (4x)

[Verse 1]
         Am                   Em                  D        Am
When the smoke clears and the truth comes shining through
                                 Em         D
I will watch the sparks fly from deadlines overdue
    C          G         C                  D
And make no mistake now, time will hunt them down
         Am                 Em         Dm7
'Til the language of reason runs them to the ground


[Chorus]
    Am                        C       F           G
And who will raise their voice as the cruel winds blow?
    Dm7                        Em                Dm
And who will call a truce? And who can break our fall?
Am                         G
Whisper words of reason to those without a song
    Am                             Em        D
And who will raise their voice and carry us along?

Am   Em  D  (2x)


[Verse 2]
          Am                          Em           D
And those images are everywhere, like sand in your hair
         Am                        Em                   D
From the beaches of childhood that slipped through your fingers
             C            G         C           D
They're like years of our lives, tormenting and cruel
         Am                         Em         Dm7
Will the world look this way again, silent and true?


[Chorus]
    Am                        C       F           G
And who will raise their voice as the cruel winds blow?
    Dm7                        Em                Dm
And who will call a truce? And who can break our fall?
Am                         G
Whisper words of reason to those without a song
    Am                             Em        D
And who will raise their voice and carry us along?

[Verse 3]
                                  Em                  D
So, when the smoke clears and the truth comes shining through
      Am                        Em         D
Those prophecies they made will crumble in two
       C          G       C                   D
Like a dark horse riding, graceful through the night
           Am                             Em          Dm7
You're the language of reason, you're the language of life


[Chorus]
    Am                        C       F           G
And who will raise their voice as the cruel winds blow?
    Dm7                        Em                Dm
And who will call a truce? And who can break our fall?
Am                         G
Whisper words of reason to those without a song
    Am                             Em        D
And who will raise their voice and carry us along?
Am                             Em        D
Who will raise their voice and carry us along?
