verse 1 
Em        G               D 
Yes we go walking in that rubble 
Em        G               D 
Yes we go waking in that heat 
Em        G               D 
And we’re holding all the roses as we travel 
Em        G               D 
And we’re holding all the thorns as we reach 

Em        G               D 
Em        G               D 

verse 2 
Em             G               D 
Kids, I know kids I can see you falter 
Em           G                  D 
You need to find out your own altars 
Em         G                              D 
Cause it wasn’t good enough to hold your hand 
Em        G                          D 
And it wasn’t good enough to make a stand 

verse 3 
Em            G                     D 
What doesn’t kill us will make us stronger 
Em             G                     D 
What doesn’t break us will make us last a little longer 
Em        G                       D 
If it doesn’t set us free in the end 
        Em                     G           D 
Well it serves the ones who follow us my friend 

Bridge 
F#m               C#m  
So they have the riot rail 
F#m               A 
So they have the barricade 
F#m               C#m  
So they have the history 
B                  A 
That they love to make 
F#m               C#m  
I want you to write this down 
F#m                    A 
I want you to carry it around 
F#m                C#m  
Blessed are the ones you know 
B                  A 
Who walk this heavy road 

Em            G                     D 

verse 4 
Em            G              D 
Yes we go walking in that rubble 
Em            G            D 
Yes we go walking in that sun 
Em                G                          D  
And our feet get tough enough to hold the travel 
Em                G                          D 
And our hands get tough enough to hold the thorns 

Verse 5

What doesn’t break us will make us last a little longer 
Em        G                       D 
If it doesn’t set us free in the end 
        Em                     G           D 
Well it serves the ones who follow us my friend
