[Verse 1]
Cm                             Cm Beyond the boundaries of your city's lights
Cm                        Ab           Gm Stand the heroes waiting for your cries
Cm                         Cm So many times you did not bring this on yourself
CmWhen that moment finally comes
Ab               GmI'll be there to help


[Hook]
Cm               AbOn that day when you need
     Gm           CmYour brothers and sisters to care
Ab             GmI'll be right here


[Chorus]
CmCitizen soldiers
Ab          Bb            CmHolding the light for the ones that we guide
         Ab        BbFrom the dark of despair
Cm                        Ab           BbStanding on guard for the ones that we sheltered
      CmWe'll always be ready
   Ab            Bb        Cm Cm Cm Ab GmBecause we will always be there


[Verse 2]
Cm                            Cm When there are people crying in the streets
Cm                          Ab         Gm When they're starving for a meal to eat
Cm                       Cm When they simply need a place to make their beds
CmRight here underneath my wing
Ab                GmYou can rest your head


[Hook]
Cm               AbOn that day when you need
     Gm           CmYour brothers and sisters to care
Ab             GmI'll be right here


[Chorus]
CmCitizen soldiers
Ab          Bb            CmHolding the light for the ones that we guide
         Ab        BbFrom the dark of despair
Cm                        Ab           BbStanding on guard for the ones that we sheltered
      CmWe'll always be ready
   Ab            Bb        Cm AbBecause we will always be there

Cm  Ab   Cm  Ab   Cm  AbThere... there... there...


[Verse 3]
Cm                  Ab Hope and pray that you'll never need me
    Cm                  AbBut rest assured I will not let you down
Cm                       AbI'll walk beside you but you may not see me
     Cm                     AbThe strongest among you may not wear a crown


[Hook]
Cm               AbOn that day when you need
     Gm           CmYour brothers and sisters to care
Ab             GmI'll be right here


[Hook 2]
Cm                   Ab              BbOn that day when you don't have the strength
        CmFor the burden you bear
Ab             BbI'll be right here
