Chords

Please rate this tab and I'll tab some more missing Chuck songs. This is only my second tab, but this song definitely deserves one. There were no lyrics available to me, so I did my best to transcribe what I hear. No capo, standard tuning. Intro: Am C G Am C G Am C G F Am C G
Am
Blue skies went in the trees

C
And birds carry our song

G
On a crowded street of refugees

F
In the city full of laws

Am                               C
Everyone is searching for a light, a valid cause

G                                     F
Cutting throats and taking notes from those who move along

             C
We must have faith

                    G
To dire times won’t change

                 F
If we give in to pain

                      C     G
Or drown ourselves in rain
Broken hearts, dirty streets From dreams of shining lights Reality kills confidence here almost every night Burning woods carry the fire Gunshots, they grow close The terrified and cowardly Gave up long ago
              C
We must have faith

                    G
To dire times won’t change

                 F
If we give in to pain

                      C    G
Or drown ourselves in rain

             C
We must work hard

                      G
And fight to make our way

                     F
And shelter those we love

                      C    G
From what come in someday

Am             C            G
We live by the sword and we die

Am             C            G
We’ll breathe by the ocean and cry

Am             C            G              F
We’ll stand up and carry the weight of the world

Am             C            G
For ourselves and loved ones to thrive
We must have faith To dire times won’t change If we give in to pain Or drown ourselves in rain We must work hard And fight to make our way And shelter those we love From what come in someday
