A# D# There's miles of land in front of us. Gm And we're dying with every step we take. F We're dying with every breath we make. A# And I'll fall in line. D# The stranger's back is all I see. Gm He's only a few feet in front of me. F And I'll look left and right sometimes, A# But I'll fall in line. D# No one looks up anymore, Gm Cause you might get a rain drop in your eye. F And heaven forbid they see you cry, A# As we fall in line. D# And about this time of every year, Gm The line will go to the ocean pier F And walk right off into the sea. A# Then we fall asleep. A# D# And as we near the end of land, Gm And our ocean graves are just beyond the sand. F A# I ask myself the question, "Why... I fall in line?" D# Then out of the corner of my eye, Gm I see a spaceship in the sky F and hear a voice inside my head. Chorus: D# A# F/A "Follow me instead." Cm D# A# F/A "Follow me instead." F "Follow me." Then the wages of war will start Inside my head with my counterparts And the emotionless marchers will chant the phrase "This line's the only way" And then I start down the sand My eyes are focused on the end of land But again the voice inside my head says Chorus: "Follow me instead" "Follow me instead" "Follow me" "Follow me instead" "Follow me instead" "Follow me instead" "Follow me instead" "Follow me instead" Take me up, seal the door I don't want to march here anymore I realize that this line is dead So I'll follow you instead So then you put me back in my place So I might start another day And once again I will be In a march to the sea You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA A# Cm D# F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
