G#m
   This vessel was to

venture into new waters To find new resources to make life easier and more enjoyable

F#m
   It was a simple mission for the crew

Who were excited to be a part of this union

C#m
   They pledged their allegiance to the captain

And vowed to be there no matter what

                                  G#m
In sickness, health, and possible death

As time passed by there was no new land to be found

                 F#m
As the days grew shorter

And the nights grew longer and colder The crew became more and more skeptical about the captain's vision

 C#m
Originally passionate and

committed true and faithful They now began to revolt Verse 1: Sing:

    G#m
You crossed the line

I was honest

                 E
I never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something

C#m
  And everyone should

take the lead

            E
Follow your dreams

If you don't try you fail Refrain 1: Shane Speaks:

G#m
   As the mutiny started and the

captain was overthrown and

           E
chained He asked them why

their minds had changed

           C#m
There's no gold to be found

no treasure in the ground

E
  We won't die for this

We won't die for you Verse 2: Sing:

       G#m
You've lost your minds

I was honest

                 E
I never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something

C#m
   And even if they disagree

            G#m
Follow your dreams

If you don't try you fail Interlude: E--F#--G#m- x2 Refrain 2: Shane Speaks:

E
  This dream is now

F#
  A shipwreck in the sand

G#m
  They gave up they

made all their demands

E
  The storm consumed 

F#
  fifty seven souls

G#m
  Who died in vain

his love they stole Chorus 1:

E           F#
  This union a battle 

           G#m
fought and lost

This union is not

          E
about the cause

          F#
This union was 

            G#m
never about love

This union This union (Repeat) Chorus 2:

E           F#
  This union a battle 

           G#m
fought and lost

This union is not

          E
about the cause

          F#
This union was 

            C#m(hold)
never about love
