Echoes

C                                               F
We used to play, take new shapes, be whoever we wanted to be
                           C
(They brought their money, we made our own)
    C                                               F
But those days are over, we're told to be quiet, be one little thing
                       C
(They spoke a language we didn't know)

          Am        F        C
But we'll speak up, speak up now
        Am           F           C
and our echoes won't bounce back doubts

C                                                  F
I’ll be the cop or the cowboy and we'll play until dark
                            C
(Dark will come but so will dawn, the sun will fall but rise once more)
C                                                  F
we don’t need light, only time now to prove who we are
                            C
(Who we are is not our job, it's not our role, it's what we love)

         Am        F        C
So we'll speak up, speak up now
        Am          G
and our echoes will be heard

C                  G
So I'll wait until 4 a.m.
         Am                F
When our sounds rise and return again
   Am          G   F  C
to be heard is all we ask

C                                                  F
edge to the line, trip the timer and wait for your turn
                           C
(Turn your fears into your fuel, and let them push instead of pull)
C                                                 F
all reds go green eventually if you’re willing to learn
                           C
(learn the rules, time our shots, our throats untwist, and we speak up)

         Am        F        C
So we'll speak up, speak up now
        Am.            G
and our echoes will be heard

C                  G
So I'll wait until 4 a.m.
         Am                F
When our sounds rise and return again
   Am          G   F  C
to be heard is all we ask

C                  G
So I'll wait until 4 a.m.
         Am                F
When our sounds rise and return again
   Am          G   F  C
to be heard is all we ask
Am       F         C
speak up, speak up, now
Am       F         C
speak up, speak up, now
Am       F         C
speak up, speak up, now
Am        G
speak up, speak up

C                  G
So I'll wait until 4 a.m.
         Am                F
When our sounds rise and return again
   Am          G   F  C
to be heard is all we have
