[Verse 1]

We're a million volts in a pool of light
F
Electricity in the room tonight

Born from fire
G F
Sparks flying from the sun
C
Yeah, I hardly know you, can I confess
F
I feel your heart beatin' in my chest
Am
If you come with me
G F
Tonight is gonna be the one
[Pre-Chorus]
C
'Cause you're faith in no fear for the fight
F
You pull hope from defeat in the night
Am G
There's an image of you in my mind
F
Could be mad but you might just be right
[Chorus]
C
We are the people we've been waiting for
F
Out of the ruins of hate and war
Am G
Army of lovers never seen before
F
We are the people we've been waiting for
C
We are the people of the open hand
F
The streets of Dublin to Notre Dame
Am G
We'll build it better than we did before
F
We are the people we've been waiting for

From a broken place

That's where the victories won
