[Intro 1]
[Dm][C][F][G]
[C][Em][Am][A]
[Dm][G]
[C][Em][Gm][A][A]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]You don't have to take[G] this crap
[Dm]You don't have to sit back[G] and relax
You can [C]actually [Em]try chang[Am]ing it[A]
[Dm]I know we've always been taugh[G]t to rely
[Dm]Upon those in auth[G]ority
[Dm]But you never know until[G] you try
[Dm]How things just [G]might be
If we [C]came [Em]toge- ther [Am]so s[A]trongly

[Chorus 1]
[F]Are you gonna try to mak[G]e this work
[E]Or spend your days down in [Am]the dirt
You see [Dm]things can change
Yes an' [G]walls can come tumbling down!
[C]Governments crack and [Em]systems fall
'Cause [Gm]unity is [A]powerful
[Dm]Lights go out - [G]walls come tumbling down!
[C]Yes, they do[Em]
Yes, they [Gm]do[A]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]The competition is a colou[G]r TV
[Dm]We're on still pause with the vide[G]o machine
That can [C]keep you [Em]slave to [Am]the H[A].P.
[Dm]Until the unity is threa[G]tened by
[Dm]Those who have and who have [G]not
[Dm]Those who are with
and [G]those who are without
[Dm]And dangle jobs like a donke[G]y's carrot
Until [C]you [Em]don't know [Am]where you [A]are

[Chorus 2]
[F]Are you gonna rea[G]lize
[E]The class war's real and not mytho[Am]logized
And like [Dm]Jericho
You see [G]walls can come tumbling down!
[C]Governments crack and [Em]systems fall
'Cause [Gm]unity is [A]powerful
[Dm]Lights go out - [G]walls come tumbling

[Bridge 1]
[Eb](Down) You'll be [Bb]to weak to fight it
[Eb](Down) Oh [Bb]unless we're united
[Cm](Down) Oh [Dm]will you deny it?
[Eb]Ooh, [F]ooh, [G]ooh[A]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Are you gonna be threa[G]tened by
[Dm]The public enemies No. 1[G]0
[Dm]Those who play the power g[G]ame
[Dm]They take the profits you take[G] the blame
When they [C]tell you [Em]there's no [Am]rise in [A]pay

[Chorus 3]
[F]Are you gonna try an' mak[G]e this work
[E]Or spend your days down in [Am]the dirt
You see [Dm]things can change
Yes an' [G]walls can come tumbling down!
[C]Governments crack and [Em]systems fall
'Cause [Gm]unity is [A]powerful
[Dm]Lights go out - [G]walls come tumbling down!

[Outro 1]
[C]Governments crack and [Em]systems fall
'Cause [Gm]unity is [A]powerful
[Dm]Lights go out - [G]walls come tumbling down!
[Repeat and fade]
