G
In the house where nobody laughs
     C       G
And nobody sleeps
G
In the house where love lies dying
C                 G
And the shadows creep

A little girl hides shaking
With her hands on her ears
Pushing back the tears
'Til the pain disappears

Am             G
Mama says some ugly words
C                 G
Daddy pounds the wall
Am                          G
They can fight about their little girl later
C                            G
Right now they don't care at all

            G          Em
No matter what they say
            C          G
No matter what they say
            G         Em
No matter what they say
            C        D
No matter what they say

Chorus:
E         B
Everyday people
          A
Everyday shame
          C#m                   E
Everyday promise shot down in flames
          B
Everyday sunrise
        A
Another everyday story
C#m                      B
Rise from the ashes, a blaze
              A
Of everyday glory
C#m                      B
Rise from the ashes, a blaze
              A
Of everyday glory

In the city where nobody smiles
And nobody dreams
In the city where desperation
Drives the bored to extremes
Just one spark of decency

Against a starless night
One glow of hope and dignity
A child can follow the light

No matter what they say
No matter what they say
No matter what they say
No matter what they say

Chorus:
Everyday people
Everyday shame
Everyday promise shot down in flames
Everyday sunrise
Another everyday story
Rise from the ashes, a blaze of everyday glory
Rise from the ashes, a blaze of everyday glory

If the future's looking dark
We're the ones who have to shine
If there's no one in control
We're the ones who draw the line

Though we live in trying times
We're the ones who have to try
Though we know that time has wings
We're the ones who have to fly...

No matter what they say
No matter what they say
No matter what they say
(Rise from the ashes)
No matter what they say
(A blaze of everyday glory)
