[Intro]
                         5/4
| G D | Em | Em Bm | D | D7 |

[Verse 1]
G   G/B G/C D       C                  [ G ]
              And I thought to close my mouth
G   G/B G/C D        C             [ G ]
              With a padlock on the night
G   G/B G/C D           C           |  G  Gsus4  |
              Leave the battlefield behind
G     D      | Em |
 Stay out the fight   5/4
Em7  Bm      |  D  |  D7  |
 Not lose my sight

[Verse 2]
G   G/B G/C D       C          [ G ]
              Now I only want to be

G   G/B G/C D         C           [ G ]
              With no pistol at my brain
G   G/B G/C D        C               |  G  Gsus4  |
              But at times it gets so lonely
G      D    | Em |
 Could go insane     5/4
Em7    Bm   |  D  |  D7  |
 Could lose my aim

[Verse 3]
G   G/B G/C D       C           [ G ]
              Now I only want to live
G   G/B G/C D         C              [ G ]
              With no teardrops in my eyes
G   G/B G/C D        C                 |  G     Gsus4  |
              But at times it feels like no chance
G   D          | Em |
 No clear blue skies 5/4
Em7   Bm     |  D  |  D7  |
 Grey cloudy lies

[Verse 4]
