VERSE
And the [D]fishermen came back across the water
And the p[D]eople started running in the park
And the c[G]ity stopped, as I held you in my [A]arms
We could [D]hear the sound of sirens all ar[A]ound us
And the [D]scent of burning oil was in the [A]air
And the [G]music played
And it [D/F#]felt so good to [Asus4]hear[A]
CHORUS
[D/F#]This is the [G]life we've been [Asus4]given[A]
So o[D/F#]pen your [G]mind and start [Asus4]living[A]

VERSE 2
There's a [D]stranger on the [G]hill and he is s[A]peaking

BRIDGE
Every[G]one, every[A]one, can you [Bm]hear the soldiers coming
Every[G]one, every[A]one, every [Bm]man and every woman
We all f[G]all, in the e[A]nd we're just [D]miracles of [A/C#]matter
So com[G]e on, let me [A]love you

Then the c[D]rowd began to h[G]ead for the ho[A]rizon
A m[D]illion people [G]walking back to w[A]ork
