Capo 2

      A                       Asus2  A
I was walkin’ down the street 
       A                       Asus2  A
In the town where I was born 
      A                Asus2  A
I was movin’ to a beat 
         A                 Asus2  A
That I’d never felt before 
     A                 Asus2  A
So I opened up my eyes 
      A                  Asus2  A
And I took a look around 
          A                      Asus2  A
I saw it written ‘cross the sky 
    A                     Asus2  A
The revolution starts now 
E              D            A   
Yeah, the revolution starts now 


The revolution starts now 
When you rise above your fear 
And tear the walls around you down 
The revolution starts here 
Where you work and where you play 
Where you lay your money down 
What you do and what you say 
The revolution starts now 
Yeah the revolution starts now 


Bridge:
E            D             A
Yeah the revolution starts now 
A
In your own backyard 
A       E       A
In your own hometown 
E                 D         A 
So what you doin’ standin’ around
     A
Just follow your heart 
        E             A   
The revolution starts now 


Last night I had a dream 
That the world had turned around 
And all our hopes had come to be 
And the people gathered ‘round 
They all brought what they could bring 
And nobody went without 
And I learned a song to sing 
The revolution starts now
