bon jovi & the war and treaty - the people's house lyrics

[verse 1: jon bon jovi]
come in and leave your mind open
it’s time we let love in
mother, father, i am broken, barely breathin’, but i’m hopin’
there’s forgiveness for my sins

[verse 2: michael trotter jr.]
i had a dream last night
and in that dream, i lost my sight
life left me deaf, dumb, and blind, woke up to realize
we’re still asleep with open eyes

[pre+chorus: jon bon jovi]
we are buildin’ this house of love
buildin’ this house, buildin’ this house

[chorus: jon bon jovi]
this is the people’s house
from sea to shinin’ sea
the rocky mountain built these walls
these halls are our city streets
no wreckin’ ball is gonna knock it down
n0body’s gonna come to steal the keys
this is the people’s house
the house of you and me
[verse 3: michael trotter jr., tanya trotter, both]
time for the turnin’ of the page
it’s time to say goodbye, old ways have changed
no crime to look out for each other
father, mother, sister, brother
can’t keep fightin’ one another

[pre+chorus: jon bon jovi & michael trotter jr.]
we are buildin’ this house of love
buildin’ this house, buildin’ this house

[chorus: jon bon jovi & michael trotter jr., tanya trotter]
this is the people’s house
from sea to shinin’ sea
the rocky mountain built these walls
these halls are our city streets
(oh, yeah)
no wreckin’ ball is gonna knock it down
n0body’s gonna come to steal the keys (ooh+ooh+ooh)
this is the people’s house
the house of you and me, yeah
(yeah)

[guitar solo]

[bridge: jon bon jovi, jon bon jovi & michael trotter jr.]
i wasn’t born a man of privilege
but i’m privileged just the same
no rain’ll wash away the stain
no truth can hide us from the shame
until we all believe in change
[pre+chorus: jon bon jovi, michael trotter jr.]
we are buildin’ this house of love
buildin’ this house, buildin’ this house (oh, ah)

[chorus: jon bon jovi, michael trotter jr., tanya trotter, jon bon jovi & tanya trotter]
this is the people’s house
(this is the people’s house)
from sea to shinin’ sea
(oh, sea to shinin’ sea)
the rocky mountain built these walls
built these walls, yeah, yeah
these halls are our (city streets) city streets
(let freedom ring, yeah)
no wreckin’ ball is gonna knock it down
(oh, no, no)
n0body’s gonna come to steal the keys
(no, no+no+no, no)
this is the people’s house
(the people’s house)
the house of you and me
(you and me and you, yeah+yeah)

[outro: michael trotter jr., tanya trotter, jon bon jovi]
ain’t no stoppin’ us now (ooh, ooh+ooh ooh)
and we won’t turn around, yeah
this is the people’s house
it’s the people’s house
oh, yeah+yeah, yeah, yeah
oh, yes, it is
this is the people’s house
