Em              A      Em
  Oh we promise pretty things

       A                   Em
And we pledge with diamond rings

      A            Em  A
We profess undying love

Em              A             Em
  But does that word hold any weight

          A                  Em
When we reserve the right to break

    A                  Em   A
Any vow that draws our blood
Refrain:
    Bm   A
Our word is so faint 

    Em
and feeble

Bm     A
Broken by the slightest 

          Em
breeze or breath

    Bm     A        Em
Our hearts are so deceitful

Bm       A
Sick and filled with lies 

             D
that lead to death
Chorus 1:
       Em
We are cowards and thieves
Will we never turn to
                  D
grieve the damage done
Never see never quake with
                       C
rage at what we have become

               Am
What we have become
Post chorus: Em--A-- x4 Verse 2:
Em        A               Em
  Yeah we get down on one knee

     A             Em
O we play at chivalry

       A                Em  A
But we do not count the cost

      Em    A            Em
We say  "On me you can depend

       A                  Em
I will be there 'till the end"

          A                 Em   A
Though we will not bear the cross
(Repeat Refrain) (Repeat Chorus 1) Chorus 2:
Em
cowards and thieves
Will we never turn to
                  D
grieve the damage done
Never see never quake with
                       C
rage at what we have become

               Am
What we have become
Chorus 3: Bass Only
       Em
We are cowards and thieves
Will we never turn to
                  D
grieve the damage done
Never see never quake with
                       C
rage at what we have become

               Am
What we have become
