[verse 1]

E G
So tell me family now what do you think?

C A
Watch it all go down the great big sink,

E G
watch how the scum it rises to the top.

C A
Don't you wonder when it's all gonna stop?

E G
Sometimes I wonder how we do sleep,

C A
serving the dodgy companies we keep.

E G
All kicking and scrounging for the very first place

C A
- dictionary defintion of a rat race.

E G
Pay off those losers we elect to lead.

C A
stealing from the mouths that we're meant to feed.

E G
Enslaving the very clothes upon my back,

C A
I feel the sting but I hear no crack, no crack, I'm sayin..




[Chorus]
C G
Running through the fire,

C
running through the flame,

G
Running through the hatred,

C
pushing through the blame,

G D
running through the hopelessness and shame,

C
Revolution already underway


[Verse 2]
E G
Big heavy pirates man digging those holes,

C A
messing with something that they can't control.

E G
Trespassing lands where they don't belong,

C A
all I hear is screaming whee there once were songs.

E G
I got my brothers there fighting those wars,

C A
fighting over scraps and scraping their sores.

E G
Under a blanket of a fire and pride that can't keep us warm for the cold
inside, inside,

C
I'm saying


[Chorus]


C G
Running through the fire,

C
running through the flame,

G
Running through the hatred,

C
pushing through the blame,

G D
running through the hopelessness and shame,

C
Revolution already underway



[verse 3]
E G
So tell me when you think we're gonna rise?

C A
Wake from this slumber wipe the tears from our eyes?

E G
Yes from this nightmare yes I must now wake,

C A
open my fist my destiny I take!

E G
Good people sick and tired of being pushed around,

C A
we call them kings but I see no crown.

E G
Tell me when you think we'll just stand up?

C A
Say enough is enough is enough, enough, I'm saying


[Chorus]


C G
Running through the fire,

C
running through the flame,

G
Running through the hatred,

C
pushing through the blame,

G D
running through the hopelessness and shame,

C
Revolution already underway
