[Intro]
G C
You, you who has smiled when you're in pain
G C
You who has soldiered through the profane
G C G C
They were distracted and shut down
G C
So why, why would you talk to me at all
G C
such words were dishonorable and in vain
G C
their promise as solid as a fog
C9
and where was your watchman then
[Refrão]
G D C Am7
I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian
G D C Am7
I'll be your warrior of care your first warden
G D C Am7
I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand
G D C Am7
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
[Próxima Parte]
G C
You, you in the chaos feigning sane
G C
You who has pushed beyond what's humane
G C G
Them as the ghostly tumbleweed
C9
And where was your watchman then
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G C
Now no more smiling mid crestfall
G C
No more managing unmanageables
G C G
No more holding still in the hailstorm
C9
Now enter your watchwoman
[Refrão] (repetir)
