Comment for any corrections and please rate
Capo 3
Intro:
Em  C Am Em  C D
D B D B D B C
D B D B D B C
  B
 Hide my face again, harbor in the shadows
  B                       D
 Feel this weight of sin hammering away
  B
 Die with the guilt of a thousand AWOL soldiers
  B                    D
 Die, watch the scythe usher me astray
C
 I can't go on this way
Em
 Not as I am today
B                          Em
 The ugly side of me is strong
C
 Take aim, a loaded gun
Em
 Pull back on all who run
B                              C
 A coward's truth inside the wrong
   G         Em
 This means war
           C
 This means war
             D B D B D B C  D B D B D B C
 This means war
  B
 Lash your tongue of bane, carry me to nowhere
  B                 D
 Mental holocaust, battle never ends
  B
 Lie! Mask the pain of a child who's forsaken
  B                D
 Lie! To myself, praise the new regime
C
 I left me long ago
Em
 Reasons you'll never know
B                            Em
 No one to miss me when I'm gone
C
 With no more words to say
Em
 No argument to stay
B                        C
 Another post I don't belong
   G         Em
 This means war
           C
 This means war
   G       Em
 This means war
           C
 This means war
             B  D B  D C Em B Em C Em B C
 This means war
Em
 No home to call my own
 No finding someone new
C
 No one to break the fall
Am
 No one to see me through
Em
 No name to carry on
 No promise for today
C
 No one to hear the call
D
 No tattered flag to raise
  B
 Walk the razor's edge, cut into the madness
  B                       D
 Question all you trust, buy into the fear
 B
 I see the man ripping at my soul now
 B                      D
 I, I know the man, I know him all too well
C
 There's nothing here for free
Em
 Lost who I want to be
B                                Em
 My serpent blood can strike so cold
C
 On any given day
Em
 I'll take it all away
B                             C
 Another thought I can't control
   G         Em
 This means war
           C
 This means war
   G       Em
 This means war
          C
 This means war
             D B D B D B C  D B D B D B C  C D B
 This means war
