Chords with lyrics
Guitar tuned half-step down.
E minorEm
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
E minorEm
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
E minorEm
I've been tired of this thinking (hey)
E minorEm
so I've drowned it out with drinking (oh)
E minorEm
Tastes like a bitter pill but I'll just wash it down
E minorEm
With the taste of something sweet that some doctor gave me now
E minorEm
And this is a madness
I'm not giving in A minorAm
A minorAm C majorC
We're shining like diamonds
G+G
With fire in our bones
D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
Standing be-side you I've a feeling that I'll never walk a-lone
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
We're children of the universe, don't you know
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
G+G D MajorD
Just children of the universe
E minorEm
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
E minorEm
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
E minorEm
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
You know what we want and we've gotta get it now
E minorEm
Something's stirring in the silence (hey, hey)
E minorEm
And it reeks of passive violence (oh)
E minorEm
Hold on tight this opportunity we'll take, put an end to all this suffering before it
gets too late
E minorEm
Hopes on the horizon
I'm not giving in A minorAm C majorC
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
We're children of the universe don't you know
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
Dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
G+G D MajorD
Just children of the universe
A minorAm C majorC
We're shining like diamonds
G+G
With love in our hearts
D MajorD
They said it's the end but I've a feeling
A minorAm
It might just be the start
C majorC G+G
As I am awakened with fire in my bones
D MajorD
Standing beside you I've a feeling that I'll never walk alone
A minorAm C majorC
We're children of the uni, children of the uni,
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
Children of the universe don't you know
G+G D MajorD A minorAm C majorC
Yeah dancing on the edge of time and it's ours to own
G+G D MajorD
'Cause we are children of the universe
