Intro:
Em C Em C
------------------------------
Em
I was climbing now I'm falling,
C
I've been pushed off by a man,
Em C
who has made it to the top and now defends it 'cos he can,
Am Em
and I have found a breach in his front line
Em
I was open now I'm hidden,
C
from the danger of his words,
Em C
I have found a good position and i'll play for what he's worth
Am Em
and he will find nowhere left to hide
------------------------------
Chorus:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hudson_taylor/battles_crd.html ]
C
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,
Em
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,
C Am
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.
Em
if we're all just cynics come undone.
------------------------------
Em
I was losing now we're drawing
C
and I'm not afraid to draw my blood
Em C
I'm not backing down so I'd surrender cause you should
Am Em
and face the truth you raise the flag I'll tear it down.
Em
You may have won the battle
C
but i'll take the fight to you
Em
and your flag is on the ground
C Am
and your bones they rattle through, as they break you,
Em
your fear has now come true
------------------------------
Chorus/ Bridge:
C
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,
Em
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,
C Am
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.
C
if we're all just cynics come undone
Am
All just waiting for the gun,
C
we are tied to the truth,
Am
the tie that binds me to you
C
I'm acting on my words,
Am
with all that I have heard,
C
with honesty in mind,
you'll find
Em C
that I'm not the liar see the truth in my eyes!
Em C
No I'm not the liar see the truth in my eyes!
------------------------------
Chorus:
C
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,
Em
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,
C Am
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.
Em
if we're all just cynics come undone.
(repeat chorus one more time, end on Em!)
