Children Of The Universe

Em
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Em
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)

Em
I've been tired of this thinking (hey)
Em
so I've drowned it out with drinking (oh)
Em
Tastes like a bitter pill but I'll just wash it down
Em
With the taste of something sweet that some doctor gave me now
Em
And this is a madness

I'm not giving in   Am

Am                 C
We're shining like diamonds
                 G
With fire in our bones
            D                                               Am  C
Standing be-side you I've a feeling that I'll never walk a-lone

     G                  D                Am   C
We're children of the universe, don't you know
G                      D                     Am  C
Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
     G                  D
Just children of the universe

Em
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Em
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Em
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)

You know what we want and we've gotta get it now

Em
Something's stirring in the silence (hey, hey)
Em
And it reeks of passive violence (oh)
Em
Hold on tight this opportunity we'll take, put an end to all this suffering before it 
gets too late
Em
Hopes on the horizon

I'm not giving in   Am   C

G                        D               Am   C
We're children of the universe don't you know
G                      D                     Am   C
Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
     G                  D
Just children of the universe

Am                 C
We're shining like diamonds
                 G
With love in our hearts
                   D
They said it's the end but I've a feeling
                     Am
It might just be the start
         C                       G
As I am awakened with fire in my bones
                D
Standing beside you I've a feeling that I'll never walk alone

      Am                   C
We're children of the uni, children of the uni,
G                  D               Am    C
Children of the universe don't you know
     G                      D                     Am   C
Yeah dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
              G                  D
'Cause we are children of the universe
