Ballad Of Treason

       G+G    Cadd9Cadd9      G+G
This kiss is a crime, let's not waste time
  G+G           E minor 7Em7
The cover of night is breaking
  G+G         Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
We even the score, we capture five more
FF   F minorFm     C majorC
Make a forbidden offering

  G+G              Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
Our heads are two states, let's pull down the gates
G+G       E minor 7Em7
Declaring freedom
G+G             Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
Send out our armies, bring death to our colonies
FF   F minorFm         C majorC
Harmony drowns out the cries of our generals

C majorC                B7B7
Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
C majorC        C majorC  C/BC/B   Am7Am7  G+G
Looking for you a  cross  the    valley
D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9      B7B7     C majorC
Birds pull you higher while the sky is on fire
C majorC            E minorEm
Crying for the dying daylight
 A augmentedA       E minorEm      A augmentedA
I need you, I need you, I need you

G+G         Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
Bodies on pyres, waiting for fire
   G+G           E minorEm     C majorC
The judge and the generals, claim jurisdiction
    G+G          Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
The faithful assemble, the crowd starts to tremble
   FF    F minorFm         G+G
The gavel it rises and begins to fall

   G+G     (rest)    Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
The treason proclaimed, pyres burst into flame
FF     F minorFm             G+G
Two Souls ride the sparks in to the blue

   C majorC             B7B7
Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
        C majorC  C/BC/B  Am7Am7  G+G
Looking for you a  cross the   valley
D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9       B7B7     C majorC
Birds pull you higher, while the sky is on fire
C majorC            E minorEm
Crying for the dying daylight
 A augmentedA       E minorEm      A augmentedA
I need you, I need you, I need you

   G+G            Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
This world is a shackle, let's shout till it rattles
FF        F minorFm    G+G
Bring down the walls of Jericho
    C majorC            B7B7
Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
C majorC         C majorC C/BC/B  Am7Am7   G+G
Looking for you a  cross the   valley
D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9      B7B7     C majorC
Birds pull you higher, while the sky is on fire
C majorC           E minorEm
Crying for the dying daylight
 A augmentedA       E minorEm
