C   G   Am     C   G   Am

C           G                 Am
I heard the wings beat on the wind tonight
C      G                         Am
as the heat stole power from the darkening light
F         G                    C                F
I saw the streets fill up with people that I knew
                       G
people who looked like you

Am             F             Am
rise if you're sleeping stay awake
Am                F             Am
we are young supernovas and the heat's about to break

C                 G         Am
drift through the streets   walk between the cars
C                G              Am
newborn sons and daughters spat forth from distant stars
F               G                C                         F
the summer will reveal itself to those whose hearts are true
                     G
and to the faithless few

Am             F             Am
rise if you're sleeping stay awake
Am                F             Am
we are young supernovas and the heat's about to break

F        G        Em       F
who will rise and who will sink
F                                   G                  Dm
who's going to stand his ground and who's going to blink

Am                     F              Am
surge forward from van cortlandt park like frightened sheep
C                   G                   Am
spirit throngs that hoist us high three thousand warriors deep
F                   G           C                        F
spray our dreams on any surface where the paint will stick
                         G
try to time the rhythm   listen for the click

Am             F             Am
rise if you're sleeping stay awake
Am                F             Am
we are young supernovas and the heat's about to break

C   G   Am     C   G   Am
