Intro:
C# minorC#m  Asus2Asus2  BB  C# minorC#m

Verse 1:
       C# minorC#m
We're in the church house kneeling down
       Asus2Asus2
We're in the subways underground
       BB
We're in the bars and on the street
      C# minorC#m
We drive a truck we walk a beat
       C# minorC#m
We're in the mills and factories
       Asus2Asus2
We make the steel we cut the trees
      BB
A augmentedA thousand-yard stare, eyes of glass
       C# minorC#m
But we will see you when you pass

 C# minorC#m Asus2Asus2 BB C# minorC#m

       C# minorC#m
We lost our homes, we lost our dreams
     Asus2Asus2
All our goals have turned into schemes
       BB
We hurt each other and ourselves
     C# minorC#m
So after long, traumatic spells

Chorus:
      C# minorC#m
We are the walking
      A augmentedA
We are the walking
      BB        C# minorC#m
We are the walking wounded

Verse 2:
       C# minorC#m
We cried out from the deepest pit
       A augmentedA
But rise back up each time we're hit
       BB
We fell from power and from grace
      C# minorC#m
But resurrection's in our face
         C# minorC#m
We're just like little girls and boys
   A augmentedA
We play with grown up toys
      BB
We never thought of sink or swim
      C# minorC#m
My brother hurts me so I hurt him

Chorus:
      C# minorC#m
We are the walking
      A augmentedA
We are the walking
      BB        C# minorC#m
We are the walking wounded

 C# minorC#m A augmentedA BB C# minorC#m

Verse 3:
    C# minorC#m
Like a circle, round and round
   Asus2Asus2
We go up so we come down
      BB
We don't explain or apologize
       C# minorC#m
We pull the veil across our eyes
  C# minorC#m
We see through your fake refrain
       Asus2Asus2
But we won't let you see our pain
       BB
You may not know us but you'll see
      C# minorC#m
There are more than you'd believe

Chorus:
      C# minorC#m
We are the walking
      A augmentedA
We are the walking
      BB
We are the walking
      C# minorC#m
We are the walking

      C# minorC#m
We are the walking
       A augmentedA
We are the walking
       BB        C# minorC#m
We are the walking wounded
