This is my first submit, I liked one of the other chords on here, but I changed
the G chord for an Em, as the song sounds wrong with such a happy chord in it...
So it's just standard tuning:
Capo on the 2nd fret
Chords used:
[Am]: x02210
[Fmaj7]: x03210
[C]: x32010
[Em]: 022000

Verse
[Am]
You've got the words to change a nation
[Fmaj7]
but you're biting your tongue
[C]
You've spent a life time stuck in silence
[Em]

[Am] [Fmaj7]
If no one ever hears it how we gonna learn your song?
[C]
So come on, come on
[Em]
Come on, come on
[Am]
You've got a heart as loud as lions
[Fmaj7]
So why let your voice be tamed?
[C]
