lyrics

STAND TOGETHER APART

Verse 1
C Dm Today is just another day - The battle is not won
F C So hard to beat a hidden enemy
C Dm Today is not a normal day - The fight has just begun
F C Though torn apart, we can't accept defeat
F C You spend your days just hoping for a hero
Am G To take away the strain and pull you through
F C/Am Today would be a good day for a hero
G C If you look inside the hero......... is in you

Chorus
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - use the love in your heart
Am G We're writing our own history - together as one true family
F C Hold on, hold on - stand together apart

Verse 2
C Dm Every day and every night - It feels there's no end in sight
F C Your head’s a mess, your heart is torn apart
C Together we can win this fight
Dm A new world can be ours one night
F C We'll sleep in peace before a brighter start
F C You spend your days hoping for a hero
Am G To take away the pain and pull you through
F C (Am) Today would be a good day for a hero
G C If you look inside the hero is in you

Chorus
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - use the love in your heart
Am G We're writing our own history - together as one true family
F C Hold on - stand together as one

Bridge
Am G Every one's a hero
Am G Everyone's a friend (So True)
F C (Am) Today would be a good day for a hero
G G7 And it's you - yes it's you
(Instrumental - F G Am - Am Bm C - F G Am - G (G7)

Verse 3
C Dm Every passing day we lose - Another gentle soul
F C We come to work with hope but death is near
C Every hour so hard to bear
Dm But your smiles, applause and thoughtful cheer
F C They give us strength to conquer every fear
F C You spend your days just hoping for a hero
Am G To take away the strain and pull you through
F C (Am) Today would be a good day for a hero
G C If you look inside the hero is in you

Chorus
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - use the love in your heart
Am G Together we're making history - we're all one true family
F C Hold on, hold on - stand together apart

F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
F C Hold on - stand together apart
