But i know, i'm not alone 
Em         A      D     
By the light, she stands

There she waves, faithful friend

Shimmering stars, westward wind

Show the way, carry me

Just when you think it might be over

Just when you think the fight is gone

Reminds us with red of those that died

In this dream , she stands

A              Bm        G  
When all your hopes come crashing down 
A              Bm        G   
Someone will pull her from the rubble 
Em     A   D     
There she stands 
A              Bm        G     
We've seen it flying torn and tattered  
A              Bm        G     
We've seen her stand the test of time 
A              Bm        G 
And through it all the fools have fallen 
Em    A    D   
There she stands

By the dawns early light 
D/B              A      D         
And through the fight, she stands
