Eddie Kirkland and Brand New Shadows-Lay Your Weapons Down
Standard tuning

This is a rough sketch of the chords in the song. Some fancy chords will be listed in
their basic forms.

A Capella
Verse 1:
It's been the coldest year I can remember,
and the leaves just started turning brown.
So when you see my white flag waving,
would you please lay your weapons down

Verse 2:
D#m7 C# B B/Bb
It's been the hardest battle in the camp-aign
B F# C#sus4-C#
And there's still no proof of gaining ground
D#m C# B F#
So when my scars bloom like roses
D#m C# D#m
Can we please lay the weapons down

Interlude:
B F# C#sus4-C#
Are we fighting for the same thi-ing
B F# C#sus4-C#
or are you just gonna wear me down
D#m C# G#m F# B F#
Cause I don't think I'll make it through the Winter
D#m C# D#m
If you won't let me talk it out

Verse 3:
D#m7 C# B B/Bb
It's been the longest time I've gone without you
B F# C#sus4-C#
And in moments I can part the clouds
D#m C# B F#
I never thought my mind could be sober
D#m C# D#m
But I've learned to lay the lion do-wn

Interlude 2:

B F# C#sus4-C#
We've been fighting for the same thi-ing
B F# C#sus4-C#
and you've worn all my de-fenses out
D#m C# G#m F# B F#
I never would have made it to she-lter
D#m C# D#m
If you hadn't broken me down

A Capella
Verse 4:
It's been a year I'd rather not remember,
but the memories where the answer's found
I know you see my white flag waving;
Would you please lay your weapons down
