C5
You called it no man's land
E5                            F5
With machine guns blasting to hell
                                   C5            G5
I let my guard down and carried my heart so far away
         C5                                             E5       
And in a letter sent, that I don't want to be here any more than them
                           A5 
I'm sipping on coffee gone stale again
                             F5                G5
Is this how it tastes to mix drinks with sour grapes?
 
   A5                  C5                   F5
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
   A5                  C5                   F5
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
                     G5 
We can argue who was first to bleed
                         C5 
Or let your walls do the talking

(We're falling faster now)

E5  C5  E5  C5 E5  E5  C5  

G5                        A5    C5
But in the middle of the night
E5                      A5     C5    
I lay there frozen in a memory
E5                A5   C5
Of us down by the river
E5              F5             G5
With your hands clenched into mine
               A5     C5
Well I still remember
E5                   A5   C5
All the promises you swore
E5                 A5   C5
That we'd never outlive
E5                   F5               G5
Please tell me you remember, forever friends

   A5                  C5                   F5
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
   A5                  C5                   F5
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
                     G5
We can argue who was first to bleed
                         C5
Or let your walls do the talking

Interlude: C5  C5  A5  F5

              C5                     E5
'Cause in the red light I'm singing all alone
             C5                        F5
I watched my favorite dream fall from grace to stone
              C5                     E5
Hiding in the basement, we kept our voices low
                     A5                          G5
You gave me that old troubled look that said, "I don't know"

C5                       E5
Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire
A5                     F5          G5
We are the last fight, we are the fire


And just like your mother said
C5                        E5
(Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire)

You're too pretty and young for this

You'll make it better on the outside
A5                      F5          G5
(We are the last fight, we are the fire)

Just keep your head and keep your fire.
