C/G
Hey now don't make a sound
C/G                                F
Say hey have you heard the news today
One flag was taken down
                         C/G
To raise another in its place
A heavy cross you bear
                             F
A stubborn heart remains unchanged
No harm, no life, no love
No stranger singing in your name

Am        G/B
Maybe the season
    C/G                  G/B
The colors change in the valley skies
Am            G/B
Dear God I've sealed my fate
C/G
Running through hell
D
Heaven can wait

Chorus:
 F
Long road to ruin
 C
There in your eyes
F                     C    G/B
Under the cold streetlights
Am
No tomorrow
 D              F
No dead end in sight

Let's say we take this town
No king or queen of any state
Get up to shut it down
Open the streets and raise the gates
I know one wall to scale
I know a field without a name
Head on without a care
Before it's way too late

Maybe the season
The colours change in the valley skies
Oh God I've sealed my fate
Running through hell,
Heaven can wait

Chorus - x2

C          Gsus4/B           C
For every piece to fall in place
        Gsus4/B          C
Forever gone without a trace
       Gsus4/B
Your horizon takes its shape
Am7             Gsus4/B
No turning back, don't turn that page

Am7           G6/B            C/G
Come now, I'm leaving here tonight
                G6/B           Am7
Come now, let's leave it all behind
             G6/B
Is that the price you pay
C
Running through hell
D
Heaven can wait

Chorus - x3
