Chorus:
F                        A#          F
I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
A#      F               C
I am a rock, not just another grain of sand (that's right)
F                              A#               F
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
A#         F               C                               F
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand because we can

A#                     Dm
She's in the kitchen starin' out the window
A#                  Dm
So tired of livin' life in black and white
A#                            Dm
Right now she's missin' those technicolour kisses
A#                      C
When he turns down the lights

Lately, he's feeling like a broken promise
In the mirror staring down his doubt
There's only one thing in this world that he knows
He said forever and he'll never let her down

Chorus

TV and takeout on the coffee table
Paper dishes, pour a glass of wine
Turn down the sound and move a little closer
And for the moment everything is alright

Chorus

           A# F      A#              F
Because we can, our love can move a mountain
   A#  F    A#             C
We can, if you believe in we
   A#F        A#              F
We can, just wrap your arms around me
   A# F     C
We can, we can

Chorus:
I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock, not just another grain of sand (that's right)
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand - x2

Because we can, our love can move a mountain
We can, if you believe in we
We can, just wrap your arms around me
We can, we can
