[Verse 1]
    C
The million votes in a
pull of lights
F
Electricity in the room tonight
Am
Born from fire
G                      F
Sparks flying from the sun
        C
Yeah, I hardly know you can I confess
F
I feel your heart beatin' in my chest
       Am
If you come with me
  G                     F
Tonight is gonna be the one

[Pre-Chorus]
              C
'Cause your faith in no fear
for the fight
         F
You pull hope from the feet
in the night
          Am               G
Isn't you met of you in my mind
         F
Could be mad but you might
just be right

[Chorus]
                             C
We are the people we've been waiting
for
                        F
Out of the rule and the hate war
                         Am         G
I mean our love is never seen before
                             F
We are the people we've been waiting
for
                         C
We are the people of the open head
                     F
The streets are [?]
                              Am
We'll build it better than we did
      G
before
                             F
We are the people we've been waiting
for

[Verse 2]
C
Broken bells and broken church
F
Hard that heads isn't
hard that works
       Am
From a broken place
       G                   F
That's where the victories won

[Pre-Chorus]
              C
'Cause your faith in no fear
for the fight
         F
You pull hope from the feet
in the night
            Am                 G
There is an image of you in my mind
         F
Could be mad but you might
just be right
