Intro:
B5 B5 B5 B5

Verse 1:
B5
Dancing on the crumbling precipice
B5                   C#5           D5         E5
The rocks are coming loose just at the edge
       Dsus2
Are we laughing? Are we crying?
       E
Are we drowning? Are we dead?

                    B5
Or is it all a dream?
B5
The bombs are getting closer everyday
B5                     C#5      D5            E5
"That can never happen here" we used to say
           Dsus2
Have these wars come to our doorstep?
         E
Has this moment finally come?

                     B5
Or is it all a dream?

Chorus:
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
       B5
Is the violence in our nature
         Dsus2
Just the image of our maker?
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
   B5
To become something greater
         Dsus2
Than the violence in our nature?
           G    Asus2
Are we not good enough

                     B5
Or is it all a dream?

Verse 2:
B5
To a predetermined fate are we condemned
B5               C#5          D        E5
Or maybe we're a book without an end
          Dsus2
We're not stories, we're not actors
      E
We're awake and in control

Eb|-------------|
                       B5
And this is not a dream
B5
So can we break this mold
B5
And set in motion something new
           Dsus2
Forgetting what we know
   E
An evolution overdue
          Dsus2
Fight the current, pull the ripcord
     E      B5
Get away!

Chorus:
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
       B5
Is the violence in our nature
         Dsus2
Just the image of our maker?
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
   B5
To become something greater
         Dsus2
Than the violence in our nature?
           G          Asus2
Are we not good, good enough?

Asus2
We travel back to what we take
                                B5
We need a storm, let's pray for rain now
   G
To wash these roads away
Asus2
Let's get off track and wander far
                        B5
Same roads lead to same destinations
       G
Follow nothing but your heart
Asus2
We're talking in our sleep
                         B5
And sleeping through our lives
                G                     B5
We dream of the places where we never die
                 G           Asus2             B5*
We step from our shadows and into the light

Chorus:
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
       B5
Is the violence in our nature
         Dsus2
Just the image of our maker?
           G
Are we not good enough?
           Asus2
Are we not brave enough?
   B5
To become something greater
         Dsus2
Than the violence in our nature?
           G    Asus2
Are we not good enough?
           B5    Dsus2
Are we not brave enough?
           G          Asus2
Are we not good, good enough?
