caught under fire they ran.

Are you the one, standing your ground?

E              A              E        A

Are you a principled man?

E             A       E           A

Followers fall, blinded by kings,

E             A            E       A

lost in the lie of the land.

E                A      E               A

Are you the one, sworn to be true?

E             A            E        A

Are you a principled man?

Who goes there? do you belong lad?

B                     E

You know there is a new dawn.

       C                        G

and one day he'll say "Stick with me baby,

  A   B    D          B

E               A       E                A

Many's the man, grounded by greed,

E              A              E         A

leaning on power and land.

E                  A           E                  A

Bleeding and hushed, hung between theives,
