Every teardrop is a waterfall    (video)

C - G (2x)

C

1. I turn the music up, I got my records on,

G

I shut the world outside until the lights come on.

C

Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone

G

I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song.

C

And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night,

G

until Monday morning feels another life.

Em

I turn the music up, I'm on a roll this time,

C

and heaven is in sight. + G - C (2x)

C

2. I turn the music up, I got my records on,

G

from underneath a rubble, I sing a rebel song.

C

Don't want to see another generation drop,

G

I'd rather be a comma than a full stop.

C

Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees,

G

maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes,

Em

but my heart is beating and my pulses start,

C

cathedrals in my heart.

C G Em

And we sa…w, oh, this light, I swear you, emerge blinking into

C

to tell me it's alright.

C - G Em

As we soa…r wa….lls, every siren is a symphony,

C

and every tear's a waterfall,

G C G C

is a waterfall, oh, is a waterfall, oh, oh, oh,

G C G C

is a waterfall, every tear is a waterfall, oh, oh, oh.

D C Em - C G

So you can hurt, hurt me bad, but still I rai…….se the flag.

+ G - C (2x)

G - C G - C

+ It was a wa……terfall, a wa……terfall.

C G

+ C - G (2x) + Oho, oho, a waterfall. (2x)

C - G

Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall. (2x)
