Intro
[Am] [Am/G] [Am/F] [Am/E] [Dm] [Esus4] [E]
[Am] [Am/G] [Am/F] [Am/E] [Dm] [Esus4] [E]
 
Verse 1
[Am]See the [F]man which [G]stands upon the [Em]hill
[F] He dreams of [Dm]all the battles [Esus4]won [E]
But f[Am]fate had [F]left its' [G]scars upon his [Em]face
[F] With all the d[Dm]damage they had [Esus4]done [E]
 
Pre-chorus
And so t[F]tired, with [G]age
He [Em]turns, the [Am]page
[G]Let the [F]flesh
[F]Submit itself to [E]gravity
 
Chorus
Let our b[F]bodies lay while our [G]hearts will stay
Let our [Em]blood invade, If I [Am]die in pain [G]
Now[F]Now, If your convictions were a [G]passing phase
May your [Em]ashes feed the river in the [Am]morning ra[G]rays
[F] And as the vermin crawls we [E]lay in the foundations of decay [Am]
 
Verse 2
[Am]He was ther[F]there
The [G]day the towers [Em]fell
[F] And so he [Dm]wandered down the [Esus4]road [E]
And [Am]we would [F]all
Build [G]towers of our [Em]own
[F] Only to [Dm]watch the roots c[Esus4]corrode [E]
But it's [F]much too [G]late
You're [Em]in the [Am]race [G]so we'[F]we'll press
[F]And press till you can't take it[E]it anymore
 
Chorus
Let our [F]bodies lay while our [G]hearts will stay
Let our [Em]blood invade, If I [Am]die in pain [G]
[F] And if by his own hand his [G]spirit flies,
Take his [Em]body as a relic to be [Am]canonized [G]
Now[F]Now, And so he gets to die a [E]saint but she will always be the whore
 
 
[Am]A- [Asus4]gainst f[Am]faith (Antihero)
[Am]A- [Asus4]gainst a[Am]all life (As if it must be pure)
[Am]A- [Asus4]gainst c[Am]change (Wander through the ruins)
[Am]We [Asus4]are f[Am]free
The guiltiness is [F]yours
 
Chorus
[G] you mus[Em]must fix your [Am]heart[G]heart
[F] And you[G]you must build an [Em]altar where it [Am]was [G]
When the [F]storm decays and the s[G]sky it rains
Let it [Em]flood, let it flood
Let it [Am]wash away [G]
[F] At last, we'll stumble through the [G]last crusade
Will you [Em]welcome your extinction in the [Am]morning rays?[G]rays?
[F] And as the swarming calls, we [E]lay in the foundations
 
Outro

Yes, it [Am]co--m[Am/G]co--mforts [Am/Gb]me-- [Am/E]much-- [F]more
To [Esus4]lay in the founda[E]foundations of decay
[Bb5] [A5] Get [Bb5] [A5] up [Bb5] [A5] coward
