Verse 1:

We were as still as the wind
D MajorD
That blows on a hot august night

D MajorD
But deadly just the same
A augmentedA
I could be as gentle as a newborn
D MajorD
Then spit into the eye of a hurricane

Never say die
A augmentedA D MajorD
Never say die
Verse 3:
A augmentedA
I guess you'd say we had a pact
D MajorD
These words we knew so well (that's right)
A augmentedA
Still they remained unspoken
D MajorD
And we'd take them to the fiery Gates of hell
Pre Chorus:
E MajorE
Once i was afraid of love
D MajorD A augmentedA
But when it's your brother Those things change

E MajorE
Never say
Chorus (No Fill):
