Dm The shifting sands conceal the truth Revealing only lies A crescent moon casts ghostly shapes As somewhere something flies Chorus: Dm Gm A# Dm Gm A# We let ourselves be bled Secrets of the dead Deserted by the ghosts that knew Man's triumphs had no bounds Left starving by our own mistakes The sands reclaimed their ground Chorus: We let ourselves be bled Secrets of the dead Gm F D# Dm C Time takes us down so deep Gm F D# Am A Is this the place we seek? Chorus: Secrets of the dead Secrets of the dead Dm We never learn form our mistakes Imperfect till the end You can't pick up the pieces And the hearts we break can't mend As if they knew the gift they brought Was wasted on this earth They searched out for a better race On whom to bring rebirth Chorus: We let ourselves be bled Secrets of the dead We let ourselves be bled Secrets of the dead Where angels fear to tread The secrets of the dead You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Am A# C Dm D# F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
