Cm                             Fm
For too long we've heard them laughing at our dreams
              Eb         Bb             Eb   Bb           Fm
Ridicule our reasons and blind ignoring what it means
       Cm
For too long we have believed the walls they made
Fm                  Eb             Ab   Eb     Bb
But now we see a shining light and we are not afraid

Fm


[Chorus]
    C7              Fm      C
But when the people speak, it's not with corporate lies
Eb            Ab         Eb    Fm
It's not with indecision, no, or academic bows and ties
                          C
When the people speak, it thunders through these hills
Eb         Ab          Eb             Ab       Eb     Fm
It's not a thing that's mild and meek when the people speak

Cm                                Fm
And there's a fear that's made to keep us in our place
           Eb        Bb                         Fm
Pacify our anger and justify our fool disgrace
                    F7         C
There's a fear made to destroy and to degrade
Fm               Eb               Ab          Bb
But now we see a shining light and we are not afraid

[Chorus]
                                C
But when the people speak, it's not with corporate lies
     Eb                       Fm           F7
It's not with indecision, no, or academic bows and ties
Fm                        C
When the people speak, it thunders through these hills
Eb                                    Ab/Eb           Fm
It's not a thing that's mild and meek when the people speak
