Verse 1 – Riff 1
I want to sing one for all the dreamers
I'm singing this one for the sparks
Here's one for the friction makers
We are the bleeding hearts
Don't care whoever you are

Chorus
Guitar 1 & 2 – Riff 2
We rise and fall together
Our hearts still beat below
(play riff 4,see bottom of tab for riff 4)You can't stand by forever
     A5A5
You're a kid with a bullet soul
         Riff 3 – 2x (first time, play last charted chord, 2nd time: omit it)
Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?

Verse 2
Guitar 1 (Drew) - Same as Intro: Part 1

I wanna turn up the radiation
I wanna glow in the dark
Love is the one true innovation
Love is the only art
Don't let 'em blow it apart

Verse 3 –
this is a bit complicated, but Guitar 2 (Drew) and the keyboard
player (Romey) are switching off notes. I won't tab the keyboard
player's stuff, but he plays his notes on the count (1 2 3 4) For Guitar
2(Drew), the individual notes are played on the upbeats (the +, or 'and' of the count).

Guitar 2 Riff:

 Measure 1:    Measure 2:    Measure 3:
 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
