Till The Casket Drops

	  		
INTRO:  D 

 D                        A 
 It was the coldest night of the year, 
 C                             G 
 Snow-covered street lamps and Belvedere, 
 D 
 The moon was just a sliver, 
 A 
 The light was fading, 
 C 
 The war was on its way, 
 G 
 And we were waiting, 

 Bb                                     A 
 You asked me how long I'd stay by your side, 
 C                                Bb (ring out) 
 So I answered with only just one reply, 

 D               Bb 
 Till the casket drops, 
 G             A 
 Till my dying day, 
 D                 Bb 
 Till my heartbeat stops, 
 G                 A 
 Till my legs just break, 
 D         Bb 
 Whoa, oh, whoa, 
 G           A 
 whoa, whoa, oh, 
 D           Bb 
 Whoa, whoa, oh, 
 G               A 
 Till the casket drops, 

 D                              A 
 A house made out of glass will surely shatter, 
 C                         G 
 So we built a fortress of red bricks and ladders, 
 D 
 The ground, it started shaking, 
 A 
 The bombs are falling, 
 C 
 We could've walked away, 
 G 
 We had a warning, 

 Bb                        A

 Whoa, oh, whoa, 
 G           A 
 whoa, whoa, oh, 
 D           Bb 
 Whoa, whoa, oh, 
 G               A 
 Till the casket drops, 

 D 
 So lay your burden down, baby, 
 C 
 Lead me out the door, 
 G 
 We can't escape this ricochet, 
 A 
 I'm ready for this war,
