Beyond the boundaries of your city's lights,

Stand the heroes waiting for your cries.
C#m                         A
So many times you did not bring this on yourself,
E
When that moment finally comes,
B
I'll be there to help.

Citizen soldiers holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
C#m                       A
Standing on guard for the ones that we sheltered,
E                       B                       C#m    A  E  B
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.

When there are people crying in the streets,
E                           B
When they're starving for a meal to eat,
C#m                     A
When they simply need a place to make their beds,
E
Right here underneath my wing,
B
You can rest your head.

C#m                 A
Hope and pray that you'll never need me,
E                        B
But rest assured I will not let you down.
C#m                       A
I'll walk beside you but you may not see me,
E                            B
The strongest among you may not wear a crown.

C#m                A                          E

I'll be right here!
