Verse 1:
Ebm
Time drifts through the sky
          C#
Without a reason why
                 B
We walk past the flowers
Don't stop for a breath
               Bb
Until they're above our heads
   F    E  Ebm
We used to fight
Have we made amends?
         C#
Father I just can't tell
              B
Watching you spent 
the time you have left
             Bb
Trapped in a cold blue bed


Refrain 1:
      F     E     Ebm
In darkness we'll rest
Count the days down 
   C#
to one last breath
                  B
In darkness we'll rest
                   Bb
So forgive what you can't forget


Verse 2:
F E  Ebm
  We said that we would call
              C#
But we never spoke at all
                  B
The years drifted by
We've built up these
walls For reasons
     Bb
that seem so small
        F  E   Ebm
If this is the end
let's bury the past
This might be our
C#
one last chance
           B
Together until the
last grain of sand
Has dropped from
    Bb
the hourglass


Chorus:
   B C#       F#
So o-pen your eyes
Open your eyes and
         C#
don't forget to pray
               B
If we lose the fight
           Bbm G#m
If we lose the fight
your spirit will
Ebm         C#/F F# C#
live through        me
                  F#
It's time we make right
It's time we make right
             C#
the pages of history
         B
Until we find
      Bbm G#m
Until we  find
               Ebm C#/F F#
a cure for the e--
    C#
--nemy


Interlude: Ebm--C#--B--Bb--F-E

Ebm
All those you've loved
All those who've died
C#
All we have left is what
lives in our minds
B
All those you've loved
All those who've died

I know their spirits

are up in the sky

All we have left is what
lives in our minds

are up in the sky

                  B
In darkness we'll rest
                   Bb           F E
So forgive what you can't forget

In darkness we'll rest
Count the days down 
to one last breath
In darkness we'll rest
So forgive what 
you can't forget
