The tuning is a whole step down on the album, but most live versions have it in standard tuning
with no capo. Also, I'm relatively unsure of some of the lyrics. Please comment with lyric corrections if you
have them!

Verse 1:
Em C
By the moonlight, we'll rise with awaking
G D
knees not shaking, (sharp and shaping down??).
Em C
The dawn's raised and dim breaking
G D
truth a blazing, perfect phase in.
Em C
Oh they're taken for the taking
G D
for what's not bound is what's not maiden.
Em C
No we will not take it,
G D
not rely, we will not take it.
Intro 4x
Verse 2:
Em C
The future will be much better-
G D
those in chains will be unfeathered.
Em C
And lots live (like shaman above the tree line??)
G D
no defeat when we join each other here.
Em C
I heard it through the walls of the station
G D
steel and stone could not contain us.
Em C
Beyond the bounds of the nation
G D
steel and stone could not contain us.
