🎸 Verse 1:
  F#m
We burned the boats to ashes
    Bm        E
After beaching on the shore
    F#m
Looked back across the ocean
        Bm     E
And said we’re never going home
   F#m
Our shadows killed the flowers
   Bm          E
Our footsteps spoiled the land
        F#m
It seems we’re always in the way
      Bm       E
No matter where choose to stand

🎸 Pre-Chorus 1:
       Bm  A/C#  D
Can we just wait
       E
Until this is over
    Bm  A/C#
If we know
D          E       D
 That our precious time is running out?


🎸 Chorus:
      A
Sooner or later
     E         F#m        D
Comes a time when we will reap what we have sown
      A      E
Sooner or later we all have to go
   D
Home
      A        E
Sooner or later there’s a time
       F#m       D
To face the music, face the sound
      A       E
Sooner or later we will have to go
  F#m  Bm  E
Home


🎸 Verse 2:
     F#m
From the gods we all seek favor
      Bm     E
With every sacrificial lamb
     F#m
But the bodies all pile higher
     Bm          E
And the blood just stains our hands
   F#m
And soon we’ll feel the panic
     Bm        E
In your breath and in your veins
      F#m
When you know there’s no tomorrow
      Bm      E
And you’ve realized too late


🎸 Pre-Chorus 2:
      Bm  A/C#
Still, we wait
D          E       D
 While our precious time is running out


🎸 Chorus:
      A
Sooner or later
     E         F#m        D
Comes a time when we will reap what we have sown
      A      E
Sooner or later we all have to go
   D
Home
      A        E
Sooner or later there’s a time
       F#m       D
To face the music, face the sound
      A       E
Sooner or later we will have to go
   N.C.
Our precious time is running out

🎸 Bridge:
       D       F#m
Are we just passengers so sick of waiting
 E
For this final destination?
 D        F#m       E
Where we all will end up, I would die to know
          D
Die to know that place


🎸 Chorus:
      A
Sooner or later
     E         F#m        D
Comes a time when we will reap what we have sown
      A      E
Sooner or later we all have to go
   D
Home
      A        E
Sooner or later there’s a time
       F#m       D
To face the music, face the sound
      A       E
Sooner or later we will have to go
 D
