VERSE 1: C#m E When we all had finally washed ashore F#m F#dim It was clear there was no one else around C#m E We declared a national holiday F#m C#m B a chance to build it from the ground PRECHORUS: C#m B So far away A F#dim E From everyone and everything starts today CHORUS: E F#m Let's keep it together E F#m Can we keep it together E F#m A We're singing a new song now F#dim E and everything starts today VERSE 2: C#m E Can we rise can we get along alright F#m F#dim Can we miss the storm that sucked the whole world in C#m E And the bulbs went out all night and the choppers in the sky F#m C#m B They searched but they could find no trace of us PRECHORUS & CHORUS BRIDGE: C#m The thunder struck the clouds appear E I feel this crew is not prepared B And pretty soon the boats came for us F#m E Half a million strong C#m We gathered arms, we fired shells E We build a wall around ourselves B F#m and pretty soon the spirit was a E B C#m F#m A lot like what it used to be back home PRECHORUS & CHORUS
