Verse 1:

Growl:
             A
The artist's palette falls
              G#
The paint is spilled with blood
        A
Someone shot him down
             G#
Left him without a soul

Sing:
           A
His body's laid to rest and
     G#
underground he'll stay
              A
With hopes to resurrect
          F#m
and live again

Growl:
 G#
another day


Chorus 1:

Growl:
D
   Now they decide
    D
who lives and dies Now!


Verse 2:

Growl:
                A
His peers won't come around
               G#
They're too disgraced to face
        A
Another soldier down
         G#
His life work's a waste

Sing:
              A
And now these walls are bare
          G#
No one pretends to care
          A
A distant memory
          F#m
His masterpiece

Growl:
   G#
In disrepair


Chorus 2:

Growl:
D
   Now they decide
    C#m
who lives and dies
    D
Now they will hold you back


Breakdown:

Growl:
C#m
    They will hold you back
E
They will hold you


Bridge:

Growl:
C#m
   We stand tall and illuminate
                        E
We fight through and prevail
C#m
   We don't stop where
you'd be giving up
              E
We won't ever fail


Verse 3:

Growl:
         A
A martyr takes his hand
            G#
To make him live again
             A
With savage sleight of hand
                G#
He'll force his legs to stand


Sing:
           A
A sick and gutless joke
      G#
A serenading hoax
     A
Interrupted peace
           F#m
A waste of time
    G#m
A pathetic excuse for hope


Chorus 3:

Growl:
C#m
   The sleepless nights have no compassion

Sing:
A
   And the dreams that come aren't true

Growl:
A charade of lies unconscious
C#m
   And so much left to be proved

Sing:
                                B
But the sun will rise and fall again
                             A
And the nights will start to shorten
The memories will fade

Growl:
C#m
   into darkness
You!!! can't let it go!!!


Outro:

Growl:
G#
  But your world is turned upside down
                         F#m
It's a panic you can't release

Once you have it you just can't
E
  Ever ignore it
G#
  That's when you realize your best
Days are behind you
    F#m
And all you ever
              E
live for Is regret
(hold)             C#m
You can't take it away (You!)
                              End in C#m(hold)
