Verse 1: Sharon Den Adel:
Abm
As cold as stone, they march in darkness
C#m                  B
Enslaving the young and killing their fathers
Abm
But soon they'll know

The path they've chosen
    C#m                    B
Has carved their faith in stone


Pre-Chorus: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
             Abm
In blood and tears, a thousand times
             C#m                          B
We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line

Of reckoning


Chorus: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
E             C#m
Red tears run down like a river
Abm
Don't close your eyes, it won't disappear
E                 C#m
No fear you wanna end the pain
           Abm
Don't let go, don't back down
         F#
Hold the line

We'll bring the reckoning

Verse 2: Jacoby Shaddix:
Ab
We're all alone, walking in twilight
    C#m                     B
The night has been long and so many've fallen
Ab
Feel no remorse, light will be breaking
    C#m                 B
Our freedom is worth it all


Pre-Chorus: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
             Abm
In blood and tears, a thousand times
             C#m                          B
We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line

Of reckoning


Chorus: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
E             C#m
Red tears run down like a river
Abm
Don't close your eyes, it won't disappear
E                 C#m
No fear you wanna end the pain
           Abm
Don't let go, don't back down
         F#
Hold the line

We'll bring the reckoning



Bridge: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
E           C#m                Abm
I see your face, find piece of mind

Between the madness and the sadness and the fire burning
E          C#m                Abm
The end of war, the great divine
              F#
We'll see the day of reckoning


Outro: Sharon Den Adel and Jacoby Shaddix:
             Abm
In blood and tears, a thousand times
            E                             B
We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line
             Abm
In blood and tears, a thousand times
            E                             B
We'll rise against, we'll always hold the line
