would you please lay your weapons down

Interlude:
B F# C#sus4-C#
Are we fighting for the same thi-ing
B F# C#sus4-C#

Cause I don't think I'll make it through the Winter

If you won't let me talk it out
Verse 3:
D#m7 C# B [ch]B/Bb[/ch]
It's been the longest time I've gone without you
B F# C#sus4-C#

But I've learned to lay the lion do-wn

We've been fighting for the same thi-ing

I never would have made it to she-lter

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
