And ready for change for everyone

Standing by your side as we take the streets tonight

From the capitol steps to the heart of downtown
Am  Em
 Ce soir...
C                     Am
Shining bright like a shooting star
Am  Em
 Ce soir...
C                           Am
Dancing to the heart of downtown
