Note: This is based on of the acoustic version CTE did with Alternative Press, but made for one guitar only
(derived from Dave's section). Watch AP's YouTube video for the changes with the A chords if you can't get it.
To get the sound similar to the original song, place a capo on the first fret.


[Intro]

                   Am  Asus4  Am  Asus2  Fmaj7
Am I the prisoner?


[Verse 1]

Am
   I am a ghost, but only if you remember
Fmaj7                             E
      so save your prayers and promises for something better
Am
   My hands are tied, stuck in this room forever
Fmaj7               E                          Am
      I scream but only echoes care to answer


[Chorus]

            Fmaj7        G                Am
We waged our war, but failed to find our hope
Asus2  Am      Fmaj7        G                E
   We made our world, but lost our way back home
        Fmaj7               G       Am         Asus2 Am
Will we fight through the storm or stay forever more
   Fmaj7  G      Am  Asus2  Am
The prisoners of war

Am  Asus4  Am  Asus2  Fmaj7


[Verse 2]

Am
   I sold my soul and traded my wings for glory
Fmaj7                      E
      But when I close my eyes I hear the angels sing to me
Am                   Fmaj7     E
   (I hear the angels sing to me)


[Chorus]

            Fmaj7        G                Am
We waged our war, but failed to find our hope
Asus2  Am      Fmaj7        G                E
   We made our world, but lost our way back home
        Fmaj7               G       Am         Asus2 Am
Will we fight through the storm or stay forever more
   Fmaj7  G      Am
The prisoners of war


[Bridge]

  Fmaj7                G
We live to exist, but are we alive?
    Am                  E
We can't run away, how will we survive?
    Fmaj7              G
I'm losing my grip, I can't wait to die

Am  Am/G  Am  Asus2 (x4)

Am
   We have to die to feel like we're alive


[Chorus]

            Fmaj7        G                Am
We waged our war, but failed to find our hope
Asus2  Am      Fmaj7        G                E
   We made our world, but lost our way back home
        Fmaj7               G       Am         Asus2 Am
Will we fight through the storm or stay forever more
   Fmaj7  G      Am  Asus2  Am
The prisoners of war


[Outro]

Fmaj7    G          Am            Asus2  Am
      I am a ghost,    but only if you remember
Fmaj7   G           Am            Asus2  Am
      I am a ghost,    but only if you remember
