Intro:
C#m  Asus2  B  C#m

Verse 1:
       C#m
We're in the church house kneeling down
       Asus2
We're in the subways underground
       B
We're in the bars and on the street
      C#m
We drive a truck we walk a beat
       C#m
We're in the mills and factories
       Asus2
We make the steel we cut the trees
      B
A thousand-yard stare, eyes of glass
       C#m
But we will see you when you pass

 C#m Asus2 B C#m

       C#m
We lost our homes, we lost our dreams
     Asus2
All our goals have turned into schemes
       B
We hurt each other and ourselves
     C#m
So after long, traumatic spells

Chorus:
      C#m
We are the walking
      A
We are the walking
      B        C#m
We are the walking wounded

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

Chorus:
      C#m
We are the walking
      A
We are the walking
      B        C#m
We are the walking wounded

 C#m A B C#m

Verse 3:
    C#m
Like a circle, round and round
   Asus2
We go up so we come down
      B
We don't explain or apologize
       C#m
We pull the veil across our eyes
  C#m
We see through your fake refrain
       Asus2
But we won't let you see our pain
       B
You may not know us but you'll see
      C#m
There are more than you'd believe

Chorus:
      C#m
We are the walking
      A
We are the walking
      B
We are the walking
      C#m
We are the walking

      C#m
We are the walking
       A
We are the walking
       B        C#m
We are the walking wounded
