Verse 1:
[Em]You could have tried a little ha[C]rder,
You could have been a little str[G]onger;
Needed me m[D]ore
[Em]With an ocean undern[C]eath me
Holding on to what to[G]morrow brings
But it's always a[D] storm
Pre-Chorus:
All this t[C]ime, keepin' it in
Needed some kind of h[D2]ope, but you couldn't begin
To see this d[Em]oubt wellin' up in my eyes
Getting harder to swa[D]llow this disguise
Chorus:
[Em]I've been losing a w[C]ar
I just can't fight any[G]more
I'm givin' up the gun, givin' up the g[D]un
I'll live to love another d[Em]ay
Maybe someday you'll se[C]e
You made a martyr of [G]me
I'm givin' up the gun, givin' up the g[D]un
I'll live to love another d[Em]ay
Instrumental:
| Em | C2 | G6 | D2 |
Verse 2:
[Em]I hope
That I can b[C]rush it off
When I get u[G]p again
Turn in and g[D]et some rest
I f[Em]eel so old e[C]nough to know
What I should le[G]arn from this
What did I lea[D]rn from this?
Bridge:
[C]I will follow the [D2]Son
And find my way h[Em]ome
I'm gonna go it al[G6]one
And maybe this t[C2]ime I'll find
Some p[B]eace of mind
