We are tired, we are weary, but we aren't worn out

There are plenty of people who pray for peace
         D                              A
But if praying were enough it would have come to be
 D                 A
Let your words enslave no one
         E
and the heavens will hush themselves to hear
     D
Our voices ring out clear
                 A       E
with sounds of freedom
            A        E
sounds of freedom


                 A               D
Come on you unbelievers, move out of the way
            A                                     D
there is a new army coming and we are armed with faith
        A             E
And to live, we must give
    A
To live
