Intro: D  D  A  A

           D                    D
I turn the music up, I got my records on
           A                       A
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
          D                         D
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
          A                         A
I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song


            D                        D
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
      A                    A
Until Monday morning feels another life
           F#m7
I turn the music up

I’m on a roll this time
    D
And heaven is in sight


Solo -x4-: A  D

           D                  D
I turn the music up, I got my records on
          A                       A
From underneath the rubble sing a rebel song
              D               D
Don’t want to see another generation drop
           A               A
I’d rather be a comma than a full stop


          D                       D
Maybe I’m in the black, maybe I’m on my knees
          A                      A
Maybe I’m in the gap batween the two trapezes
       F#m7
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
  D
Cathedrals in my heart


       D           A             F#m7
And we saw oh this light I swear you, emerge blinking into
   D
To tell me it’s alright
      D      A                     F#m7
As we soar walls, every siren is a symphony
                 D
And every tear’s a waterfall


          A
Is a waterfall
D
Oh
          A
Is a waterfall
   D
Oh oh oh
               A
Is a is a waterfall


           E             D
So you can hurt, hurt me bad
               F#m7       D
But still I’ll raise the flag

Oh
D                    D
It was a wa wa wa wa wa-a-terfall
A              A
A wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall


D
Every tear
D
Every tear
A                  A
Every teardrop is a waterfall


D
Every tear
D
Every tear
A                  A
Every teardrop is a waterfall
