Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Sometimes you'll hear the chord change after a C and slide up to a D
When you see "C* D" play the C for just about the full timing and slide up to the D power chord on the last
beat before changing to the next Em.

🎸 Verse 1:
Em             D             G      D
   When a man must walk the Devil's road, oh
Em             D           C
   Churning up the earth below
Em             D             G      D
   He is bound to brothers built by nations
Em             D           C  D
   With no pride to call his own


🎸 Chorus: 
Em                   D       C* D
   Whoa, the trouble gets so loud
   Em                        D       C* D
   When all of Hell tries to drag you down
Em                   D    C* D
   Whoa, the wounded warrior
   Em            D     C* D
   Whoa, on this battleground

🎸 Verse 2:
Em           D           G      D
   Who is he to think of his survival
Em           D             C
   When a man must kill his home?
Em             D         G         D
   Standing naked in the breast of canyons
Em             D           C
   Where companions are alone
