Am C We started like children F Lost in the building by the wall Am C Hope lost to fear F And nothing was clear when lost it all Chorus: Dm C This is how, how we tried Em C This is where, where it died Dm C This is how, how we cried Em C Like the dogs left outside We were so cautious Guarding our losses viciously I’m never grieving Tender like ravens by the sea Chorus I am too shy to cry You did the work and took the blame Winning these battles Losing the war, what did I gain? Chorus These words are like sharp knives Ruining our lives every time Crying to our son I was just so wrong every time Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C Dm Em F Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
