Tom : G
[Intro 2x 2x 2x]
G C G Em D G
There was snow, There was snow
C G
Stretched for miles and more
Em D G
Where we buried, where we buried our souls
G G
Oh I long, Oh I long
C G
For them days left and gone
Em D G
Where we sang and where we danced to a brighter song
Em D F#m Em A
But now I look upon a field with bodies stretched out and I feel nothing
Em D G D A
But something's burning in my soul I let it lose control and I'm in, Oh God I've sinned
D D
But I tried so hard, and we tried so hard
D D
And it's a long long road, that you told me so
D D
Yeah I tried so hard, to forget where we are
D
And all we do is laugh and we sing
Refrão
[Refrão]
D G D Bm A G
Ohh ohh ohhhhh
Bm A G
And we laughed oh, and we cried and thought oh, what a life
Bm A G
And we laughed, and we cried and thought oh, what a life
[Próxima Parte]
D D
But I tried so hard, but we killed our hearts
D D
In valleys low, I hear the trumpets blow
D D
Yeah, I tried so hard, yet I'm lost and scarred
D
And I'm filled with regret yet I sing
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Final]
G C G Em D G
