Em        D               Bm  C
Did you know there was a tower
           Em               D
Where they look out to the land
                   Bm              C
To see the people quickly passing by
 Em      D               Bm  C
This is for their own desire
         Em               D
As they spit down to the earth
                   Bm               C
To feel the power pouring in their veins

C     B            C     B
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, yeah, yeah
C     B            C     B    D
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, yeah, yeah

Chorus:
G         D          C
And the black smoke rises
G         D                C
From the fires we've been told
G         D        C
It's the new age crisis
G             D              C
And we will stand up in the cold
                 Em
Stand up in the cold

Many people are dividing
And a world apart with just one heart
Is bound to keel and fade away
None of us will be deciding
And the fate of man is in the hands
Of he who stands and heeds the call

Woah oh oh oh oh, yeah, yeah
Woah oh oh oh oh, yeah, yeah!

Chorus

Am              Bm
We won't stand alone
                        Am  Bm
We will stand up in the cold
Am              Bm
We won't stand alone
                        Am  Bm
We will stand up in the cold
Am              Bm
We won't stand alone
                        Am  Bm  D
We will stand up in the cold

Chorus:
And the black smoke rises
From the fires, we've been told
It's the new age crisis
And we will stand up in the cold
And the black smoke rises
From the fires, we've been told
It's the new age crisis
And we will stand up in the cold
Stand up in the cold
