Intro- Dm
Verse
Dm A
It was the coldest night of the year
C G
Snow-covered street lamps and Belvedere
Dm
The moon was just a sliver
A
The light was fading
C
The war was on its way
G
And we were waiting
Bb A
You asked me how long I'd stay by your side
C Bb
So I answered with only just one reply
Chorus
Dm
Till the casket drops
Bb
Till my dying day
G
Till my heartbeat stops
A
Till my legs just break
Dm
Whoa oh whoa
Bb
whoa whoa oh
A
Whoa whoa oh
G
Till the casket drops
Verse 2
Dm A
A house made out of glass will surely shatter
C G
So we built a fortress of red bricks and ladders
Dm
The ground it started shaking
A
The bombs are falling
C
We could've walked away
G
We had a warning
Bb A
You asked me how long I'd stay by your side
C Bb
So I answered with only just one reply
Chorus
Bridge
Dm
So lay your burden down baby
C
Lead me out the door
G
We can't escape this ricochet
A
I'm ready for this war
Dm
So lay your burden down baby
C
Lead me out the door
G
We can't escape this ricochet
A
I'm ready for this war
Chorus
