[Verse 1]
G
Maybe it's bricks and mortar now
C
Whether or not they run it down
G
I don't want anything
Am
to shake that shape away
G
No one told us which way to come
C
Nobody mapped oblivion
G Am
So I go growing roses in disarray
[Refrain 1]
C D
Just like most falling head in
C D
Til my ghost fills the bed in
[Chorus 1]
G C
So lift it up like a banner
G Bm
Hold it up over me
Em C
If this war is never ending
D
I take this love
G
down with me
C
(Like a banner)
G C
(Like a banner)
[Verse 2]
G
I don't need fate
to give it time
C
Doesn't take pain
to change your mind
G
No weapon can sever
Am
the soul from me
[Refrain 2]
C
Not the sorceress
D
not the money
C
All my cleverness
D
all my cunning
[Chorus 1]
G C
So lift it up like a banner
G Bm
Hold it up over me
Em C
If this war is never ending
D
I take this love
G
down with me
C
(Like a banner)
G C
(Like a banner)
[Bridge]
G
It's around me in
my surroundings
Bm
It counts me when it
starts the counting
Em
In the chaos
there is a standard
D
I'm carrying it
like a banner
G
It's around me in
my surroundings
C
It kills me when it
starts the counting
Em
In the chaos
there is a standard
D
I'm carrying it
like a banner
[Chorus 1]
G C
So lift it up like a banner
G Bm
Hold it up over me
Em C
If this war is never ending
D
I take this love
G
down with me
C
(Like a banner)
G C
(Like a banner)
