We're a million volts in a pool of light

Electricity in the room tonight

Born from fire

I feel your heart beatin' in my chest
G#m
If you come with me
F# E
Tonight is gonna be the one
[Pre-Chorus]
B
'Cause you're faith in no fear for the fight
E
You pull hope from defeat in the night
G#m F#
There's an image of you in my mind
E
Could be mad but you might just be right
[Chorus]
B
We are the people we've been waiting for
E
Out of the ruins of hate and war
G#m F#
Army of lovers never seen before
E
We are the people we've been waiting for

We are the people of the open hand
E
The streets of Dublin to Notre Dame
G#m F#
We'll build it better than we did before

We are the people we've been waiting for
