G5                                  C5
Come out to the edge where it is quiet
D5                                      G5
Where the ink will drain right out of you
G5                               C5
Far below, the sea and its convictions
D5                                     G5
Get broken by the beach out of your view


      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to join the army
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to hear the news
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time for easy silence
              D5             G5
But now the jury waits for you


G5                                           C5
You're caught between the mirror and the country
D5                                     G5
And caught up in a prayer of liars' words
G5                                              C5
The hounds are on your scent, you must move swiftly
D5                                            G5
Their spies just tellin' lies of what they heard


      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to join the army
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to hear the news
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time for easy silence
              D5             G5
But now the jury waits for you


G5                                        C5
So make yourself a mask of chrome and heartaches
D5                                 G5
And give yourself a hand to turn away
G5                                       C5
Once you heard a choir when you were dreamin'
D5                                    G5
And you wish you could remember it today


      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to join the army
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time to hear the news
      C5                                 G5
And once there was a time for easy silence
              D5             G5
But now the jury waits for you
