Verse:
         C          G
In this desert, in darkness
 C
Lying with the gun across his chest
  C              G
Pretending he's heartless
        C
As the fire flashes in the sky
         F
He was fragile and frozen
          C
When the bullet took away his friend
              F
And now he's somehow more broken


Chorus:
     Ab           Bb
He's pulling his weapon to his side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line
     Ab           Bb
He's pulling his weapon to his side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line

Verse:
  F            D
Sweating and shaking
 C                      G
Lying with her hands across her chest
     F               D
She wakes with her cravings
        C                   G   A
As the fire flashes in her eye
          F           D
She was fragile and frozen
           C                     G
When the needle took away her friend
               F
But now she's somehow more broken


Chorus:
      Ab           Bb
She's pulling her weapon to her side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line
      Ab           Bb
She's pulling her weapon to her side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line


Post-Chorus:
Ab          Bb
 With every battle he's chosing
C            Eb
 With every fight he's losing
Ab       Bb             C   Eb
 His enemy's not far behind
Ab           Bb
 With every promise she's broken
C            Eb
 With every lie she's spoken
Ab       Bb             C
 Her enemy's not far behind


Bridge:
Ab          C
 It's your time...
Eb           Ab
 It's your time...
Eb           C
 It's your time...
C          Ab
 It's your time!


Chorus:
     Ab           Bb
He's pulling his weapon to his side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of his goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line
      Ab           Bb
She's pulling her weapon to her side
 C          Eb
Loading it full of her goodbyes
Ab         Bb                C    Eb
Holding an enemy across the line


Post-Chorus:
Ab          Bb
 With every battle he's chosing
C            Eb
 With every fight he's losing
Ab       Bb             C   Eb
 His enemy's not far behind
Ab           Bb
 With every promise she's broken
C            Eb
 With every lie she's spoken
Ab       Bb             C
 Her enemy's not far behind
