Silent Legacy Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

A 577655 (I decided to play that A in a barre chord, because it sounds better)

Verse

 Why dEid you steal the matches from the one room motel

Asus2Once they gave you answers, now they give you hell

 They will nEever understand, they wonder where did they go wrong

 How cAsus2ould you be so selfish, why can't you get along

Chorus

 And as you F♯mpray in your dAarkness

 For wEings to set you Asus2free

 You are bF♯mound to your sAilent legacEy Asus2

You've seen it in the movies and you've heard it on the street

Craving the affection your blood is full of heat

They don't listen to your reasons as original as sin

Deny all that you feel and they will bring you home again

And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

Your body is alive, but no one told you what you'd feel

The empty aching hours trying to conceal

The natural progression is the coming of your age

But they cover it with shame and turn it into rage

And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

You are digging for the answers until your fingers bleed

To satisfy the hunger, to satiate the need

They feed you on the guilt to keep you humble keep you low

Some man and myth they made up a thousand years ago

And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

Mothers tell your children be quick you must be strong

Life is full of wonder, love is never wrong

Remember how they taught you, how much of it was fear

Refuse to hand it down, the legacy stops here

(try to pick the chords here instead of strumming)

Oh my child...

It's pretty easy to play. If you have any corrections, leave it in the comments.

And enjoy playing!
