One of Us Standing (Nathan Moore, SMMD, The Slip)

[Cleantone]

One of Us Standing- by Nathan Moore

I've been overwhelmed by the task at hand
I've screamed "impossible" to the silent stars
but I travel far and wide across the sacred land
share the wine in the churches and bars
and I say "wipe the tears you shed from fear they've won-
I've come to tell you the revolution marches on"
go ahead, give your heart back to the rising sun
what's right is right, it's never wrong

as long as there's one of us standing 4x

we may always be needed more than ever
for those who seek to punish all they fear
may always be growing in number
in a world that gets more frightening every year
but we fight for that day not because it comes
but because it is upon us as we speak
white doves fly from off your tongue
when you lift your voice for the weak

as long as there's one of us standing 4x

love is not some fragile flower
but one that breaks the sidewalk just to bloom
even God said there is no higher power
than the lilly or the love inside of you
so if you're out there, looking for answers
then you should know that you're the light in someone's dark
same way we're swept by the dancers
sung by the morning lark

as long as there's one of us standing 4x

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

as long as there's one of us standing 4x

1rst verse

I get overwhelmed by the task at hand.
I scream "impossible" to the silent stars.
But I travel far and wide across this sacred land
share the wine in the churches and bars
and I say Wipe the tears you shed from fear they've won-
I've come to tell you the revolution marches on.
Give your heart back to the rising sun.
What's right is right, it's never wrong.

This is a simple one but I don't think I've seen the changes anywhere else...
