Verse 1:

Growl:
             C#m     A
The artist's palette falls
              F#m         Ab
The paint is spilled with blood
        C#m      A
Someone shot him down
             F#m   Ab
Left him without a soul

Sing:
           C#m     A
His body's laid to rest and 
     F#m           Ab
underground he'll stay
              C#m  A
With hopes to resurrect 
          F#m
and live again 

Growl:
 Ab
another day


Chorus 1:

C#m    A      D

who lives and dies Now!


Verse 2:

Growl:
                C#m   A
His peers won't come around
               F#m       Ab
They're too disgraced to face
        C#m     A
Another soldier down
         F#m      Ab
His life work's a waste

Sing:
              C#m       A
And now these walls are bare
          F#m      Ab
No one pretends to care
          C#m A
A distant memory
          F#m
His masterpiece

Growl:
   Ab
In disrepair


Chorus 2:

Growl:
C#m    A      D
   Now they decide 
    C#m
who lives and dies
    A         D
Now they will hold you back


Breakdown:

Growl:
C#m A         D    E   C#m
    They will hold you back
A         D    E
They will hold you


Bridge:

Growl:
C#m
   We stand tall and illuminate
                        A   D E
We fight through and prevail
C#m
   We don't stop where 
you'd be giving up
              A   D E
We won't ever fail


Verse 3:

Growl:
         C#m       A
A martyr takes his hand
            F#m   Ab
To make him live again
             C#m       A
With savage sleight of hand
                F#m      Ab
He'll force his legs to stand


Sing:
           C#m     A
A sick and gutless joke
      F#m    Ab
A serenading hoax
     C#m    A
Interrupted peace
           F#m
A waste of time
    Abm
A pathetic excuse for hope


Chorus 3:

Growl:
C#m
   The sleepless nights have no compassion

Sing:
B                                  A
   And the dreams that come aren't true

Growl:
A charade of lies unconscious
C#m
   And so much left to be proved

Sing:
                                B
But the sun will rise and fall again
                             A
And the nights will start to shorten
The memories will fade 

Growl:
C#m
   into darkness
You!!! can't let it go!!!


Outro:

Growl:
A                                 Ab
  But your world is turned upside down
                         F#m
It's a panic you can't release

Once you have it you just can't
E
  Ever ignore it
A                              Ab
  That's when you realize your best
Days are behind you
    F#m
And all you ever 
              E
live for Is regret
(hold)             C#m  
You can't take it away (You! )
                              End in C#m(hold)
You can't take it away (You! )
