Intro: G E
Verse:
B E
Our time was ever on the road, the riders is in what we make,
B E
Oh to hear, to hear of how in this give and take,
Gb E B
But hear it this way, hear it this way, alright.
B E
The war is our hearts and lovers in the band we love,
B E
We keep breaking our backs, hoping that it gives enough,
Gb E
Oh, what do you need, what do you need,
Chorus:
B E
Oh man there's ladders to the sky, building up a high rise,
B E
Oh man we won't last long but we're giving it our best try,
Gb E
Don't you know you're alive, you know you're alive,
Gb B
None of us save the day, the war it told you.
Verse:
B E
Too mad, I'm in love with everybody on the city bus,
B E
Feel the push and pull, hoping that it doesn't mean much.
Gb E
Oh what do you see, what do you see,
Chorus:
B E
And everybody on the street is singing like it's Sunday,
B E
So we keep inside and you look steady at me.
Gb E Gb E
Ah... Ah....
B E
And we don't know what left, but we feel it's coming back soon,
B E
So we're standing in the street staring at a blood red moon,
Gb E
We are the tide, we are the tide,
Gb B
And none of us save the day, the war it told you.
