Intro
Am F Dm Em F
C Am F Dm Em F C
[Verse 1]
C
Well sing it up on a mountain if you've had it to here with this place
Am
These voices are candles these fingers are scarce we'll be the judges
F
of who are the damned and the saved
C
That promise of perdition, it's not coming back
[Verse 2]
C
I sing all these songs for my best friends
C
Feel this life for all that it's worth
Am
We've got to get a move on tonight
F
Cause our flesh will perish the ember will move on this earth
C
Don't ask for second chances cause you'll come up flat
Am G
Our shoulders to the well we'll take it back
[Chorus]
C G
Recreate them cause I don't wanna live in the
Am F
shackles of the shepherd anymore
C G
It's isolating to know we die alone
Am F
The truth is always there to warm my heart
G
What else do you need?
[Interlude]
C Em F Dm Em F G
[Verse]
C
You toss all your guilt to the fire
N.C.
with that [unknown] membership card
Am
It marked your confirmation
F
And rendered you bonds with the church that kept you in the dark
C
As we watched the ashes smolder I felt proud
Am G
As we waved goodbye to the past that tore us down
[Chorus]
C G
Recreate them cause I don't wanna live in the
Am F
shadow of the valley anymore
C G
It's isolating to know we die alone
Am F
The truth is always there to warm my heart
G
What else do you need?
[Interlude]
Am G F (x2)
[Bridge]
Am G
Try to steal small voices from the fathers from the lot
F
Cause we're dying to believe (we're dying to believe)
Am
Mount on the wings like eagles
G
Carve these words into a rock
F
Oh I will not believe (I will not believe)
[Chorus]
C G
Recreate them cause I don't wanna live in the
Am F
ashes of the alter anymore
C G
It's isolating to know we die alone
Am F
The truth is always there to warm my heart
G
What else do you need?
