🎸 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

Sooner or later we will have to go
