Intro: G D C Am x4
G D C G
You, you who has smiled when you're in pain
D C G
You who has soldiered through the profane
D C G D C
They were distracted and shut down
G D C G
So why, why would you talk to me at all
D C G
Such words were dishonorable and in vain
D C G
Their promise as solid as a fog
D C
And where was your watchman then
G D C Am
I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian
G D C (Am)
I'll be your warrior of care your first warden
G D C Am
I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand
G D C
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian

G D C G
You, you in the chaos feigning sane
D C G
You who has pushed beyond what's humane
D C G
Them as the ghostly tumbleweed
D C
And where was your watchman then
G D C Am
I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian
G D C (Am)
I'll be your warrior of care your first warden
G D C Am
I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand
G D C
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
G D C Am x2
G D C G
Now no more smiling mid crestfall
D C G
No more managing unmanageables
D C G
No more holding still in the hailstorm
D Am G C D
Now enter your watchwoman
G D C Am
I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian
G D C (Am)
I'll be your warrior of care your first warden
G D C Am
I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand
G D C
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
G D C Am x 8
