[Intro]

Bm B (X6)
[Verse]
BmWe are ancients
C#mAs ancient as the sun
BWe came from the ocean
BOnce our ancestral home
BmSo that one day
C#mWe could all return
BTo our birthright
BThe great celestial dome
[Chorus]
BWe are the children of the sun
BOur journey's just begun
BSunflowers in our hair
BWe are the children of the sun
BThere is room for everyone
BSunflowers in our hair
[Bridge]
B Bm
[Verse]
BmThroughout the ages
C#mOf iron, bronze, and stone
BWe marveled at the night sky
BAnd what may lie beyond
BmWe burned offerings
C#mTo the elemental ones
BMade sacrifices
BFor beauty, peace and love
[Chorus]
BWe are the children of the sun
BOur kingdom will come
BSunflowers in our hair
BWe are the children of the sun
BOur carnival's begun
BOur suns will fill the air
[Bridge]
D E Bm
D E BmAnd you know it's time
D ETo look for reasons why
DJust reach up and touch the sky
ETo the heavens we'll ascend
[Chorus]
BWe are the children of the sun
E BOur journey has begun
B
BAll the older children
BCome out at night
BAnemic, soulless
BGreat hunger in their eyes
BUnaware of the beauty
Bm BThat sleeps tonight
BAnd all the queen's horses
E BAnd all the king's men
BWill never put these children
back
BTogether again
[Outro]
Bm D E (X2)

BWe are the children of the sun
BWe are the children of the sun
