B5 , D5 , G5 , D5

B5
Every night
D5
You wrote another line
G5                   B5
With a blood, broken, bottle
B5
And every day
D5
You wish it away
G5
Why don't you pull the pin
                 B5          D5
On that grenade you coddle

B5
I wanted to believe
D5
Bodies swinging from trees
G5
Struggling to stand
D5
With your head in your hands
B5
A stoic last stand
D5
Of a dying man


G5
I wanted to believe
   D5
As I watched your world
                G5
Crumble in your hands
G5
I wanted to believe
 D5
As you raised your glass
              G5
To your last stand
G5
And I wanted to believe
G5
You would win
     D5
The war in your head
                  B5
That I did not understand
          D5      G5
That I did not understand

D5

B5
Every night
       D5
The questions poured out
             G5
Of your wounded eyes
      D5
Damn dark things
B5
Every day
     D5
You used to pray
G5                      D5
Listen to the black raven sing
B5
You wanted to believe
G5
As you were falling to your knees
G5
Struggling to stand
       D5
With your life in your hand
B5
The sad last stand 
D5
Of a dyin' man


G5
I wanted to believe
    D5
As I watched your world
G5
Crumble in your hands

I wanted to believe
         D5
As you raised your glass
               G5
To your last stand

And I wanted to believe

You would win
     D5
The war in your head
                  B5       
That I did not understand
D5
That I did not understand


G5
I wanted to believe
    D5
As I watch your world
G5
Crumble in your hands

I wanted to believe
    D5
As you raised your glass
              G5
To your last stand

And I wanted to believe

You would win
     D5
The war in your head
                  B5
That I did not understand
          G5             D5
That I did not understand


B5                     D5    G5                      
And the questions pour out, 
G5                  D5    B5
And the questions pour out
B5                     D5    G5                     
And the questions pour out
G5                  D5    B5
And the questions pour out
