Bb(hold)
Distortion: Ebm C# B Bb F E
Verse 1:
[Ebm]Time drifts through the sky
Without a [C#]reason why
We walk past the [B]flowers
Don't stop for a breath
Until they're a[Bb]bove our heads
We [F]used [E]to [Ebm]fight
Have we made amends?
Father I [C#]just can't tell
Watching you s[B]pent
the time you have left
Trapped in a [Bb]cold blue bed
Refrain 1:
In dar[F]kness [E]we'll [Ebm]rest
Count the days down
to [C#]one last breath
In darkness we'll [B]rest
So forgive what you[Bb] can't forget
Verse 2:
[F] [E]We [Ebm]said that we would call
But we never s[C#]poke at all
The years drifted [B]by
We've built up these
walls For reasons
that [Bb]seem so small
If this [F]is [E]the [Ebm]end
let's bury the past
This might be our
[C#]one last chance
Together un[B]til the
last grain of sand
Has dropped from
the [Bb]hourglass
Chorus:
So [B]o-[C#]pen your [F#]eyes
Open your eyes and
don't for[C#]get to pray
If we lose the [B]fight
If we lose [Bbm]the [G#m]fight
your spirit will
[Ebm]live through[C#/F] [F#] [C#]me
It's time we make [F#]right
It's time we make right
the pages of [C#]history
Until we [B]find
Until [Bbm]we [G#m]find
a cure for the [Ebm]e--[C#/F][F#]
--ne[C#]my
Interlude: Ebm--C#--B--Bb--F-E
Bridge:
[Ebm]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[C#]All we have left is what
lives in our minds
[B]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[Bb]I know their spirits
are up in the sky[F][E]
[Ebm]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[C#]All we have left is what
lives in our minds
[B]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[Bb]I know their spirits
are up in the sky[F][E]
(Repeat Chorus)
Refrain 2:
In dar[F]kness [E]we'll [Ebm]rest
Count the days down
to [C#]one last breath
In darkness we'll [B]rest
So forgive what you[Bb] can't forget[F][E]
[Ebm]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[C#]All we have left is what
lives in our minds
[B]All those you've loved
All those who've died
[Bb]I know their spirits
are up in the sky[F][E]
F E Ebm(hold)
In darkness we'll rest
Ian sings in backup:
In darkness we'll rest
Count the days down
to one last breath
In darkness we'll rest
So forgive what
you can't forget
