What About Us

        Em      C                 
We are searchlights, we can see in
     G
 the dark
        Em  C                     
We are rockets, pointed up at the 
G
stars
        Em  C               G
We are billions of beautiful hearts
        Em   C                     
And you sold us down the river too 
G
far


[Chorus]
           Em
What about us?
           C                     
What about all the times you said 
             G
you had the answers?
           Em
What about us?
           C                       
What about all the broken happy 
  G
ever afters?
           Em
What about us?
           C                       
What about all the plans that ended
    G
 in disaster?
Continues after the ad
           Em                C
What about love? What about trust?
           G
What about us?


[Verse]
Em                         C
Sticks and stones they may break 
these bones
         G
But then I'll be ready, are you 
ready?
Em                    C
It's the start of us, waking up, 
come on
G
Are you ready? I'll be ready
Em                    C          
I don't want control, I want to 
      G
let go
G
I'll be ready
      Em               C          
Cause now it's time to let them 
   G
know


[Chorus]
G          Em
What about us?
           C                     
What about all the times you said 
             G
you had the answers?
           Em
What about us?
           C                       
What about all the broken happy 
  G
ever afters?
           Em
What about us?
           C                       
What about all the plans that ended
    G
 in disaster?
           Em                C
What about love? What about trust?
           G
What about us?
