[ch]A[/ch]\r\nThe ground shakes I fall on my face[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]                                                     [ch]A[/ch]  [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nI've been stuck in this place and now I have to choose[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                         [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThrow up my white flag or find a way to move[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut my feet are stuck in wet

     [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nEvery battle wound I find, I hide[/tab]\r\n\r\nCause when I look I just can’t help but cry\r\n[tab]   [ch]D[/ch]\r\nMy bitter heart seems out of place[/tab]\r\n\r\nWhen I can't seem to bring forth my grace\r\n[tab]      [ch]D[/ch]\r\nIt’s been years since I've had a taste[/tab]\r\n\r\nOf peace in this chaotic space","plain_text":"[Verse 1]\n\n\nThe earth
