CAPO ON FRET 3
VERSE 1
[D] [Em] [G]
My knuckles were bruised like violets
[D] [D]
Suckerpunching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked
[Em] [G]
Spineless in my tomb of silence
[D] [D]
Tore your banners down, took the battle underground
[Em] [G]
And maybe it was egos swinging
[D]
Maybe, it was her
[D] [Em] [G] [D]
Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur
CHORUS
[C]
All that blood shed, crimson clover
[G]
Uhuh, sweet dream was over
[Em] [D]
My hand was the one you reached for
[C]
All throughout the Great War
[G]
Always remember uhuh, tears on the lettеr
[Em] [D]
I vowed not to cry anymore
[D]
If we survived thе Great War
VERSE 2
[Em] [G]
You drew up some good faith treaties
[D] [D]
I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
[Em] [G]
You said I have to trust more freely
[D] [D]
But diesel is desire, you were playing with fire
[Em] [G]
And maybe it's the past that's talking
[D]
Screaming from a crypt
[D] [Em] [G]
Telling me to punish you for things you never did
[D]
So I justified it
CHORUS
[C]
All that blood shed, crimson clover
[G]
Uhuh, the bombs were close and
[Em] [D]
My hand was the one you reached for
[C]
All throughout the Great War
[G]
Always remember uhuh, the burning embers
[Em] [D]
I vowed not to fight anymore
[C]
If we survived thе Great War
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
Uh-huh Uh-huh
BRIDGE
[Am] [G]
It turned into something bigger
[Em] [D] [Am]
Somewhere in the haze got a sense I've been betrayed
[G]
Your finger on my hair pin triggers
[Em] [D] [Am]
Soldier down on that icy ground, looked up at me with honour and truth
[G] [Em]
Broken and blue, so I called off the troops
[D] [Am]
That was the night I nearly lost you
[G] [Em] [D]
I really thought I lost you
VERSE 3
[D] [Em] [G]
We can plant a memory garden
[D] [D]
Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair
[Em] [G]
There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair
[D]
And we will never go back
CHORUS
[C]
To that blood shed, crimson clover
[G]
Uhuh, the worst was over
[Em] [D]
My hand was the one you reached for
[C]
All throughout the Great War
[G]
Always remember uhuh, we're burned for better
[Em] [D]
I vowed I would always be yours
[C]
Cause we survived thе Great War
[G] [Em]
Uhuh, uhuh
[D]
I will always be yours
[C]
'Cause we survived the Great War
[G]
Uhuh
[Em] [D]
I vowed I will always be yours
