Intro:
D   F#m  Em  F#m G  Bm A  G  D  A  D

               G          A           D
These are the hands that build cathedrals
               G          A            Bm
These are the hands that feed the world
               G          A       D           Bm
These are the hands that kill the ones we heal
  G            A        D
These are the hands of man

              G          A          D
These are the eyes that see the wonders
              G           A           Bm
These are the eyes that greet the dawn
              G          A        D     Bm
These are the eyes that see the glory of 
      G           A       D
The place that is our home

               G           A         D
These are the wounds that tell of anger
               G            A          Bm
These are the wounds that speak of hate
              G         A       D       Bm
Yet there was one that gave his only son
      G            A            D   G A
And these are the wounds... of love

              D
And we have crossed the oceans
         D
We have followed the stars
         G
We have learned to reason
              A
And we have studied the heart
        D
We can build cathedrals
        D
We are part of the plan
         G
We have sailed the skies
     A      D
For we are man!

               G       A          D
These are the days to live forever
               G           A        Bm
These are the days of the human race
                G      A         D           Bm
For there will come a time when we'll be gone
 G           A      D
Gone without a trace

                G          A          D
These are the dreams that take us forward
                G          A             Bm
These are the dreams that walked the moon
                G          A        D        Bm
These are the dreams that make us what we are
  G             A           D  G A D  G A
These are the dreams... of Man!

              D
And we have crossed the oceans
         D
We have followed the stars
         G
We have learned to reason
              A
And we have studied the heart
        D
We can build cathedrals
        D
We can sail the skies
        G
We have energy hostage
         A
Turning day into night

        D
We are far from perfect
        D
We are making mistakes
         G
We can change direction
           A
'Cos it's never too late
         D
We can cross over bridges
       D
We can open our hands
       G
To a brand new world
 A      D  G A D  G A
We are man!

              D
And we have crossed the oceans
         D
We have followed the stars
         G
We have learned to reason
              A
And we have studied the heart
        D
We can build cathedrals
        D
We can sail the skies
        G
We have energy hostage
         A
Turning day into night

        D
We are far from perfect
        D
We are making mistakes
         G
We can change direction
           A
'Cos it's never too late
         D
We can cross over bridges
       D
We can open our hands
       G
To a brand new world
 A      D 
We are man!
