intro 4x riff on C#m 1. C#m
B
standing on the precipice Rome’s ancient pillaged walls
Gm#
does anything ever change at all,
C#m
is it all just meant to fall
C#m
the power grabs and the marble slabs and the blood carried off with rain
Gm# C#m
the slaves that bare the burden while emperors count their gains
C#m / A C#m / F#m D E
no man will find, fortunes in the ruins empty cities wasted time
C#m/A E/F# D B
now walk for miles, every day, shades of grey come what may and walls to climb
2x riff on C#m 2. C#m
B
history has fractured rocks and scattered them all around
Gm# C#m
the lessons we should have learned by now are buried deep in the ground
C#m B
the tanks that roll, troops on patrol confrontation in between
Gm# C#m
brothers slaying brothers blood and tears depict the scene
C#m / A C#m / F#m D E
the smoke won’t clear, absolute power only strives to instill fear
C#m/A E/F# D B
with friends so near the city quakes children shake lives at stake’n rockets flare
SOLO repeat verse 3. C#m
B
of wars that can’t be won
living with the consequence
Gm#
to know you’re always looking down the barrel of a gun
C#m B
will sanity and reason come in time to save day
Gm# C#m
must we take up arms, protect the rights so children shall be safe
C#m
C#m / A C#m / F#m
no man will find,
C#m/A E/F# D B
now walk for miles, every day, shades of grey come what may and walls to climb outro 4x riff on C#m

intro E Bm E Bm A G Bm A C, Bm
Bm
rings around the sun, nature on the run, melting ice don’t think twice
E
gods children have had their fun, rolling out the tanks, busy pulling ranks
Bm
playing with facts there ain’t no turning back
riff A G Bm
Bm
two hands hold the sword of an unrelenting lord, clip the wings of drunken kings
E
their deeds can’t be ignored, the castle walls are scared, the monarchy is marred
Bm
the time that has been lost at such a precious cost
riff A G Bm, A C Bm
Bm
you and I could love, we never had enough, we rolled around on sacred ground
E
with storm clouds just above glancing at the queen who refuses to be seen
Bm
at her own accord she learns to say the word.
A G Bm two hands hold the sword not able to ignore the fight
A C Bm
two hands hold the sword not able to ignore what’s right
solo E Bm E Bm A G Bm A C Bm
Bm
the chain of lies won’t last, two hands holding fast, invading armies without a quest
E
collapse into a trance, children carry shame but cannot take the blame
Bm
boundaries were crossed territories lost
A G Bm two hands hold the sword not able to ignore the fight
A C Bm
two hands hold the sword not able to ignore whats right
