Verse 1:

F#m          C#m              E                   Bm7
Once upon a time there was a boy named Marcus, a boy named Travis.
     F#m                        C#m                  E                    Bm7
They liked each other more than many were used to; shared lunches, lent shoulders, long glances.
    F#m                            C#m                E                 Bm7
One day they were surrounded by a couple of bullies; teeth were broken, ugly words spoken.
          F#m               C#m                      E
Have you ever dreamed of a world where things like this don't happen again and again?

Chorus:

              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7
You’ll see for them this ain’t fun, words gon’ be more than a gun. We will prevail: They’re up and away.
              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7
You’ll see for them this ain’t fun, words gon’ be more than a gun. We will prevail: They’re up and away.


Verse 2:

          F#m                      C#m                  E                     Bm7
Have you heard the story of that sweet young couple; a girl named Patricia, a guy named Corey?
           F#m                       C#m                        E
When they met each other it was expected she’d brush him off; eyebrows went up at her,
                                                                          Bm7
                                                                        fists clenched in front of him
     F#m                        C#m                     E                        Bm7
One day he was invited by her so-called best friends; abusing and breaking him, leaving him no choice,
       F#m                 C#m                      E
but forever dreamin’ of a world where things like this don't happen again and again.


Chorus:

              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7
You’ll see for them this ain’t fun, words gon’ be more than a gun. We will prevail: They’re up and away.
              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7

Verse 3:

 F#m                     C#m               E                Bm7
Saw the news about this early bloomer; unstable feelings, careless adventures.
       F#m                              C#m                   E                    Bm7
Sent pictures that were solely for her lover’s trusted eyes; many gained insight, laughter ‘bout every byte.
      F#m                            C#m                 E                  Bm7
They took from her then spat on our poor pure creature; never had worries, never felt hatred,
         F#m                  C#m                      E
now she wants to leave for a world where things like this don’t happen again and again.


Chorus:

              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.

You’ll see for them this ain’t fun, words gon’ be more than a gun. We will prevail: They’re up and away.
              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7
You’ll see for them this ain’t fun, words gon’ be more than a gun. We will prevail: They’re up and away.
              F#m                  C#m                             E             Dmaj7
We make them cowards none too shy stand up and run! Look how they flail! Up and away.
                F#m                               C#m                         E                     Dmaj7
