Iron From The Earth

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

White foam breaks

Rolling down the wild northern ridges

Hard stone hides

Holding fast beneath the jagged hollow

Pre-Chorus

They took the grain

They took the name

They took the ground

Chorus

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Pull the iron from the earth

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Freedom is the only worth

Stand up

Stand up

Verse 2

Rusted gate

Swinging in a cold biting wind

Battered coat

Stitched with red thread along the collar

Pre-Chorus

We want the grain

We want the name

We want the ground

Chorus

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Pull the iron from the earth

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Freedom is the only worth

Stand up

Stand up

Bridge

No more kneeling

No more bowing

No more begging for a crumb

Our pride is breathing

Our pride is growing

Our pride is what we have become

Chorus

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Pull the iron from the earth

Stand up

Stand up for the valley

Freedom is the only worth

Stand up

Stand up

Post-Chorus

Raise the fire

Raise the fire

High above the peak

Raise the fire

Raise the fire

High above the peak
