[Am]I
Am a wavering candle [Am]light
I remain but I?m ever [F]slight
Through all my [G]years
[Am]I sit
In my room in the fading [F]light
Righting back all my wrongs [Am]tonight
Cos I?m still [G]here

Still I [Am]fight
With my pen in my hand held[Am] tight
Writing [F]protest songs t[C]onight cos I?m still [G]here
