*the guitar kind of fades out then comes back in so i'm not really sure how many times
the G on the 15th fret is picked but if you play along to it you'll get it
Am G F C
We part the veil on our killer sun
Am G F C
Stray from the straight line on this short run
Am G F C
The more we take the less we become
Am G F C
The fortune of one man means less for some
