[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][Em][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]This is
a song for the [Am]common [Em]one
Who do [C]everything [Em]that's
[C]ever been [Em]done
Whose hands built the cit[C]ies[D]
[Em]This is [Am]a song [Em]for you
This is a song for my [Am]brothers and [Em]friends
It's been said before but [C]I'll say it [Em]again
We fight the same [C]battle
that [D]no one can win
[Em]This is [Am]a song [Em]for you
I [D]sing for the hungry
The [C]tired and the [Em]torn
For [D]the ones with no chance
From [C]the day they were [Em]born
[D]I sing to the battered
The [C]beaten and the [Em]worn
This is [Am]a song [Em]for you
This is a song [Am]for the rank and [Em]the file
Who take the first step
Who [C]go to the last [Em]mile
From the [C]great Mississipi
To the [D]river called Nile
[Em]This is [Am]a song [Em]for you
I [D]sing to the honest
To the [C]upright and [Em]tall
To the [D]ones who are still fighting
In [C]spite of [Em]it all
Who will [D]pick up the pieces
[C]Af ter [Em]the fall
This is [D]a song [Am]for you
