[Intro]
Am (x12)
[Verse]
Am
Close my weary eyes
F G Am
Under choking clouds of ash and darkest dust
Am
The silver kiss of sleep is lost
F G Am G
I can feel these broken cogs begin to rust
[Chorus]
F G Am
But when the end finally comes I won't despair
F G Am
I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there
[Instrumental]
Am Am/D Am/C (x4)
[Verse]
Am
Try to keep a blank page
F G Am
But these memories they flood my mind with grief
Am
Faces lost forever
F G Am
And the guilt of feeling some kind of relief
[Chorus]
F G Am
But when the end finally comes I won't despair
F G Am
I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there
[Instrumental]

Ten long years I could see your ghost

Ten long years I could see your ghost
[Interlude]
C G Am
As this world of twisted metal falls
C G Am
I can hear the demons tearing down the walls
C G Am
In the face of so much hate and cruelty
F G Am
In my mind's eye my angel's all I see
[Instrumental]
Am Am Am Am
Am Am Am G
[Chorus]
F G Am
But when the end finally comes I won't despair
F G Am
I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there
