Capo 3
(Its basically Am F two measures each in the intro and verses, but I like to strum G right before switching
Chords. It kinda simulates the lead part )
Intro and verse:
Am G F G (or Am F)
Am
We watched the moon ascend
Am G F
We saw the tide turn red
G
Just like the tears that ran
Am
Down the face of this Crimson Egg
G
As its scream echoed in our hearts
F G
And the sky began to close above us
F C
Here we stand, before the Hand of God!
G F
And they offered the best of us,
C G
a crown to call his own!
F
It's all he ever sought
Am (Like the intro: Am G F G)
But at what cost?
Am
The Apostles descend on the Band
G
And they're looking to add them to,
F G
the bodies they stood upon
Am
I can hear him whisper through his teeth
G
Without a tongue he took his seat
F
At the price of our lives!
G
We were a Sacrifice!
F C
Here we fall, before the Hand of God!
G F
They cut us up like animals
C G
With teeth and claws
F
If only I had died that night...
Am F C G Am
All I have left now are memories and scars
F C G
But I can't tell the two apart
Am F
I wish that I could show you that I love you
C G
I wish that I could shield you from the pain
Am F C G
I wish that I could return to you the life he ripped away
F G
There's no peace to be found in death for us
F G F G
There's no peace to be found in death for us
F G
I only long to fight
Am ... C G
Am F C G Am
All I have left now are memories and scars
F C G
But I can't tell the two apart
Am F
I wish that I could show you that I love you
C G
I wish that I could shield you from the pain
Am F C G
I wish that I could return to you the life he ripped away
Am F C G
But I only hurt you... (x4)
End on Am , then the Instrumental
