[C]
Verse
[G]Our time was ever on the road, the riders is in what we m[C]ake,
Oh[G] to hear, to hear of how in this give and[C] take,
But hear it thi[D]s way, hear it this w[C]ay, alright.[G]
The[G] war is our hearts and lovers in the band we lo[C]ve,
We k[G]eep breaking our backs, hoping that it gives enou[C]gh,
Oh, w[D]hat do you need, what do you n[C]eed,
Chorus
Oh man th[G]ere's ladders to the sky, building up a high[C] rise,
Oh man we[G] won't last long but we're giving it our bes[C]t try,
Don[D]'t you know you're alive, you know you're ali[C]ve,
None of us save the [D]day, the war it told[G] you.
Verse
[G]Too mad, I'm in love with everybody on the city bu[C]s,
Feel[G] the push and pull, hoping that it doesn't mean [C]much.
Oh what do you[D] see, what do you [C]see,
Chorus
And every[G]body on the street is singing like it's Sunday,[C]
So we k[G]eep inside and you look steady at [C]me.
[D]Ah... [C] [D]Ah....[C]
And w[G]e don't know what left, but we feel it's coming back so[C]on,
So we're[G] standing in the street staring at a blood red moo[C]n,
We are the [D]tide, we are the tid[C]e,
And non[D]e of us save the day, the war it told yo[G]u.
