Intro:  G#   Fm   Cm  Bb  
CmMy love, the drums are G#calling
A reFmd sky, a warnCming
No senCmse in hiding from the G#front line
It's bFmeen here the whole tCmime
CmI sleep to keep my mFmind at ease
I wander through G#a dream
Of what I once Cmbelieved
CmNo rest until we face the G#truth
AnFmd draw it to the lG#ight
Chorus:
CmThis is a call to G#arms
Will you D#embrace me
Before it's Cmtoo late, Bbbaby?
[x2]
G#   Fm   Cm   Bb
CmTake care of all the love you G#spend
It's wFmasting to nothiCmng
BewaCmre of wolves who hide their G#teeth
They'll Fmtake you and leave Cmyou
CmShould I be like a Russian Fmdoll?
A statue in thG#e cold
As empty as a Cmshell
Or mCmake a final G#stand
Go back to what wFme had
I'm stepping out from my Cmdefenses

Will you D#embrace me
Before it's Cmtoo late, Bbbaby?

My Cmlove, the drums are G#calling
A Fmred sky, a Cmwarning
