[Verse 1]
[Em]Word[D]s dr[C]ip[G]ping with frustration,[Am]
[D]as I catch [G]my breath[D]
[G]The bleakness of the situati[Am]on,
and the [D]burden of [G]death
cnd I'm ashamed of my si[Am]lence,
my cowardly [C]weak [G]friend
Spent behind these [Am]walls I'm feeling,
a bitter [C]rage des[G]cend

[Verse 2]
[Em]cnd yet [D]I h[C]ide,
because I don't think that [G]it's mine
cnd the [Em]gates are [D]open [C]wide,
with the rushing [G]of the tide
But it's [Em]the voices [D]that lift me [G]up,
and hold me [D]closer to [Em]the light
You [A]better take up the battle cry,
[Am]the batt[C]le cry[G]

[Verse 3]
Striding in my priv[Am]ilege,
[D]I'm blinkered on both [G]sides
While the steps behind [Am]me say
look [D]closer
cnd watch what slowly [G]dies[Em][G]
Take in what's [Am]around you,
and what's [D]hidden from your [G]view
But the [Em]voices [D]they lift [C]me up,
and they liftin [G]you
cnd the [Em]gates are [D]open [C]wide,
with the rushing [G]of the tide
But it's [Em]the voices [D]that lift me [G]up,
ground [D]me in this bitter [Em]fight
You better [A]watch them as they fly,
better [C]watch them [Em]fly

[Verse 4]
This sentence that's been [A]given,
[C]fro[Am]m the powers [C]that be[D][G][Em]
Hidden from [A]a conversation,
[C]no [Am]reaction [C]no decree[G][Em]
cnd I'm guilty for [B]what I didn't know,
[C]and what I chose not to [B]see

[Verse 5]
But it's the [Em]voices [D]they lift me [G]up,
they [C]lift[G]in me
The [Em]voices [D]that lift [G]me up,
they're [C]lift[G]in me
The [Em]voices [D]that lift [G]me up,
they're [C]lift[G]in me
The [Em]voices [D]that lift [G]me up,
[C]they're lift[G]in me

[Verse 6]
[G]cnd yet [D]I h[C]ide,
because I don't think [G]that it's mine
cnd the [Em]Gates are [D]open [C]wide,
I'm ashamed I [G]stepped aside
But it's [Em]the voices [D]they lift me [G]up,
ground [D]me in this bitter [Em]fight
Now I [A]un derstand the
meaning [C]of the night
Now I [A]un derstand the meaning
of the night
[D][C]
