D                         G
I was dreaming in my dreaming
D                          G
Of an aspect bright and fair
D                         G
And my sleeping, it was broken
D                             G
But my dream it lingered near
D                              G
In the form of shining valleys
D                            G                          
Where the pure air recognised
D                        G
And my senses newly opened
D                          G
I awakened to the cry

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m                               G
That the people have the power
D                           Em
To redeem the work of fools
F#m                               G
Upon the meek the graces shower
D                               A
It's decreed, the people rule

[Chorus]
              D               G
People have the power
                   Em           A
People have the power
                     D               G
People have the power
                        Em        A
People have the power

[Verse 2]
D                                G
Vengeful aspects became suspect
D                               G
And bending low as if to hear
D                                    G                                
And the armies ceased advancing
D                                         G
Because the people had their ear

D                                   G
And the shepherds and the soldiers
D                              G
Lay beneath among the stars
D                                     G
Exchanging visions and laying arms
D                     G
To waste in the dust

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m                       G
In the form of shining valleys
D                        Em
Where the pure air recognised
F#m                      G
And my senses newly opened
D                        A
I awakened to the cry

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Verse 3]
                              D                        G
Where there were deserts I saw fountains
D                    G
Like cream the waters rise
D                           G
And we strolled there together
D                      G
With none to laugh or criticise

D                       G
And the leopard and the lamb
D                        G
Lay together truly bound
D                         G
I was hoping in my hoping
D                           G
To recall what I had found

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m                      G
I was dreaming in my dreaming
D                       Em
God knows a purer view
F#m                       G
As I lay down to my sleeping
D                         A
I commit my dream to you

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Bridge]
D                       G
The power to dream, to rule
Em                       A
To wrestle the world from fools
D                       G
It's decreed, the people rule
Em                         A
It's decreed, the people rule

                       D                    G
Listen, I believe everything we dream
     Em                                     A
Can come to pass through our union
D                                  G
We can turn the world around
Em                                A
We can turn the earth's revolution

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Outro]
                          D       G
The power to dream, to rule
Em                                 A
To wrestle the world from fools
D                                  G
It's decreed, the people rule
Em                               A
It's decreed, the people rule
               D             G
We have the power
               Em       A
We have the power
                 D                G
The people have the power
          Em             A
We have the power
