[Bm] [A]
[C] [G] My E3 [C] sundown's finished,
[G] It's been designed for the soul.
We've got the gear set,
All [A] ready under pressure.
[C]
[G] As electric bells pulse,
Some shadows in the clouds,
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom clashing.
[Em]
[G] [D] I said for the warrior,
[G] Whose strength is not to fight.
[C] Slashing for [G] the refugees,
[A] Caught in a narrow [D] road fight.
[G] For each and every young hero,
Soldier [C] in the night.
[G] Complicating the laws,
[C] And [D] the freedom [G] pledge.
In the old clouds, white curtains,
When the fall of the Lord has been slashed.
And the hypnotic [C] battery [A] missed,
Slowly [C] missed.
[G] In the treacherous school,
Struck by arrows,
Fire got full of the woman.
And the infantry,
On [A] L3, had [G] frozen.
[D] Slowly hit the naked ones,
[G] Through the smooth [C] sand [G] darkness.
[C] For the chalice of pure,
The [G] issues [A] of our war [D] could work.
[G] For every hollowed [C] [G] out,
On the whole world,
[C]
[G] And the gates of war,
Chimes [D] of freedom clashing.

slashed.
As I recall, we were caught,
By those fragile,
[C] For [D] the [G] anxious old.
As we listened, what went [C] right,
[G] And we watched, what went left.
Smell the piss, [C] hollowed,
[A] To the void.
[G]
[D] In the cold, searching for,
[G] The bleachers to get rid.
[C] For the locked up heart,
Where [A] two persons are [D] bound there.
[G] Hearts shine on cool gentle snow,
Wrapped inside [C] the veil.
[G] And we gazed upon,
Chimes [D] of freedom [G] clashing.
