Am
Theres a rising on the street tonight
G
Every woman, man and child
F
Through all the struggle we will all unite
E
Watch the cities running wild

'Cause we've been lied to by the liars
We've been sold what we can't buy
In our hearts there's a fire
You can see it in our eyes

Chorus:
               Am                C
We are the revolution we want it all tonight
            G
we want to take back whats
         F
rightly ours
               Am                C
We are the revolution we wanna stand and
                  G
fight map of our lives
             F     E          Am
Written in scars written in scars

There's a riot on the streets tonight
There's a reason for the cause
It's up to us to remember
All the world for coming forth

But I'll be taken by the taker
A fate that awaits us all
'Till the day we'll meet our Maker
We won't be stopped by anyone

Chorus - x2

We are the revolution
We are the revolution
We are the revolution
