Armor and Sword

Year: 2007 - Album: Snakes & Arrows

Written by Lee / Lifeson / Peart

	  		*Intro* 


E, C (X2) 


E                       C 
The snakes and arrows a child is heir to 
E                   C 
Are enough to leave a thousand cuts 
E                     C 
We build our defenses, a place of safety 
E              C                       E  C 
And leave the darker places unexplored 


E, G, F, A (X2) 

E             G           F      A 
Sometimes the fortress is too strong 
E              G        F    A 
Or the love is too weak 
E                G        F      
What should have been our armor 
A         E         G           F  A 
Becomes a sharp and angry sword 


C                  Em        
Our better natures seek elevation 
D                C         
A refuge for the coming night 
C                    Em                D 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 


E, C  

E                    C 
We hold beliefs as a consolation 
E        C 
A way to take us out of ourselves 
E             C 
Meditation or medication 
E         C                     E C 
A comfort or a promised reward 


E, G, F, A 

E             G      F      A 
Sometimes the spirit is too strong 
       E            G     F  A  
Or the flesh is too weak 
E             G       F        A 
Sometimes the need is just too great 
        E      G         F  A 
For the solace we seek 
E           G       F      
The suit of shining armor 
A         E        G            F  A 
Becomes a keen and bloody sword 


C                    E                D 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 
C                E       
A refuge for the coming night 
D           C  
A future of eternal light 
C                    E                D 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 

*Intro* 

C, D#, B, G# 

C                  D#      
Confused alarms of struggle and flight 
B                   G# 
Blood is drained of color 
C                      D# 
By the flashes of artillery light 
E                    G#               C     D# 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 
B                    G# 
The battle flags are flown 
                 C          D# 
At the feet of a god unknown 
E                    G# 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 

*Solo* 

E, G, F, A 

E             G      F      A 
Sometimes the damage is too great 
       E           G    F  A 
Or the will is too weak 
E                G        F     
What should have been our armor 
A         E         G             F  A 
Becomes a sharp and burning sword 


C                    E                D 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight 
C                E  
A refuge for the coming night 
D           C 
A future of eternal light 
C                    E                D 
No one gets to their heaven without a fight (x3) 


*Outro* 
C, E, D (x2)
