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


(Repeat Chorus)


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


(Repeat Chorus)
