Intro: A D Verso 1: A You?re sinking all my ships D You?re climbing all my fences A The storm upon my gate D The breach in my defenses Pre-Refrão F#m D Like the sun against the morning A E You set your face against the doors in F#m D All the houses where I run A E And I?m laying down my gunsA D You fill the hollows of the halls F#m E In the houses where I walk A D You?re hanging pictures on the walls F#m E In the houses where I haunt Verso 2: A You?re standing on my harbor D You?re landing on my shore A I?m handing down my armor D I?m landing on my sword Pre-Refrão 2: F#m D On the brink of kingdom come A E And I?m standing in the flood F#m D Of everything I ever was A E And I?m laying down my guns Instrumental: A A Love can break your bones Broken bones sing songs D F#m I?m laying down my guns E So I can sing along Outro: A DD E And you keep coming on C#m D Like Napoleon D E And I?ll lose my head and throne C#m D In the bloody revolution
