Am
  As cold as stone, they march in darkness

  Dsus2                 C6
Enslaving the young and killing their fathers

Am
  But soon they'll know
The path they've chosen
    Dsus2                   C6
Has carved their faith in stone
[Pre-Chorus]
                Am
In blood and tears, a thousand times

               Dsus2                        C6
We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line
Of reckoning [Chorus]
F               Dsus2
  Red tears run down like a river

Am            G    Am                 G
  Don't close your eyes, it won't disappear

F                   Dsus2
  No fear you wanna end the pain

           Am
Don't let go, don't back down

Hold the line

We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line
N.C. Of reckoning [Verse 2]
Am
  We're all alone, walking in twilight

    Dsus2                   C6
The night has been long and so many've fallen

Am
  Feel no remorse, light will be breaking

    Dsus2                C6
Our freedom is worth it all
[Pre-Chorus]
                Am
In blood and tears, a thousand times

  I see your face, find piece of mind

  Between the madness and the sadness and the fire burning

F          C/E Dm
  The end of war, the great divine

Am              G
  We'll see the day of reckoning
