Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
(base horm mel ody goes with those chords)
Verse #1:
I once knew a guy, obsessed with the afterlife
Oh what a terrible day that was, he realized he'd wasted all his
Time was ticking by, and he'd been left behind
And as the clock tick-tocked his heart did stop and ev erything he had was fucked
Pre-chorus/Chorus:
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call? )
Will we ever make i t through?
As they watch u s
fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
We can only look away (away!), away-way-way-way-way
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims o f to speak
And only then will we be free
And up will rise the meek
And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant
(Right Into the Intro When You reach Meant)
Intro
Verse #2:
The beaten and the bruised, forsaken, the abused
Oh what a glorious day we'll have rising up and claiming all o ur dues
The day will come as sure as the ever-setting sun
All of those that self-imposed will find themselves so indisposed
Pre-chorus/Chorus:
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call? )
Will we ever make i t through?
As they watch u s
fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
We can only look away (away!), away-way-way-way-way
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims o f to speak
And only then will we be free
And up will rise the meek
And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant
(In place of those brass solo's i suggest to do the intro again,
i highly doubt you own any brass instruments)
Intro
Verse #3:
Now! with th e line drawn in the
Wet Sand You need to tell us where you stand
Sitting, waiting, wa tching, rotting,
everything they warned us of is true
Now tell me what w e're all supposed to do
They're coming after all of us with e verything they've got
With the fury of a soldie r who will answer to his God
So how will we fight? When al l we have is logic and love on our side
Chorus
And when we fall we will fall toget her
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant
