[Verse 1]
Cm D# A#
Yes we go walking in that rubble
Cm D# A#
Yes we go waking in that heat
Cm D# A#
And we’re holding all the roses as we travel
Cm D# A#
And we’re holding all the thorns as we reach
Cm D# A#
Cm D# A#
[Verse 2]
Cm D# A#
Kids, I know kids I can see you falter
Cm D# A#
You need to find out your own altars
Cm D# A#
Cause it wasn’t good enough to hold your hand
Cm D# A#
And it wasn’t good enough to make a stand
[Verse 3]
Cm D# A#
What doesn’t kill us will make us stronger
Cm D# A#
What doesn’t break us will make us last a little longer
Cm D# A#
If it doesn’t set us free in the end
Cm D# A#
Well it serves the ones who follow us my friend
[Bridge]
Dm Am
So they have the riot rail
Dm F
So they have the barricade
Dm Am
So they have the history
G F
That they love to make
Dm Am
I want you to write this down
Dm F
I want you to carry it around
Dm Am
Blessed are the ones you know
G F
Who walk this heavy road
Cm D# A#
[Verse 4]
Cm D# A#
Yes we go walking in that rubble
Cm D# A#
Yes we go walking in that sun
Cm D# A#
And our feet get tough enough to hold the travel
Cm D# A#
And our hands get tough enough to hold the thorns
[Verse 5]
Cm D# A#
What doesn’t kill us will make us stronger
Cm D# A#
What doesn’t break us will make us last a little longer
Cm D# A#
If it doesn’t set us free in the end
Cm D# A#
Well it serves the ones who follow us my friend
