Blessed are the bullies
For one day they will 
Have to stand up to themselves
E5
Blessed are the liars
E5
For the truth can be awkward

Em
It's not a place
             A
This country is to me a sound
Em
Of drum and bass
               A
You close your eyes to look around

Em
Look around, look around
        A
Look around, it's a sound
Em
Look around, look around
          A
It's a sound

Em
It's not a place
             A           Em
This country is to me a thought
              D
That offers grace
G       A               (Em) Bm
For every welcome that is sought

Em        Bm   
You are rock and roll

It's not a place
           A                 Em
This is a dream the whole world owns
Em
The pilgrim's face
             A               Em
It had your heart to call her home

Em      A
Hold on, brother John
Em              Bm
Too many mothers weeping
Em       D
Dream on, brother John
G                    A         Bm
In your dreams you can’t be sleeping

Em
Put your hands in the air
Hold on the sky
Could be too late 
But we still gotta try

Em
There's a moment in our life 
A
Where a soul can die
Em
And the person in a country 
A
When you believe the lie
Em          A
The lie (the lie, the lie)
Em
There's a promise in the heart 
A
Of every good dream
Em                    A
It's a call to action, not to fantasy
Em                 A
The end of a dream, the start of what's real
Em               A
Let it be unity, let it be community
Em
For refugees like you and me
A
A country to receive us
Em
Will you be our sanctuary
A        Bm
Refu-Jesus

Em       Bm
You are rock and roll
Em       Bm
You and I are rock and roll
