[F] My knuckles [Gm] were bruised like [Bb] violets.
Sucker punching [F] walls cursed you as I sleep-talked.
[Gm] Spineless in my tomb of silence.
[Bb] Tore your banners [F] down, put the battle underground.
And maybe it [Gm] was ego slinging.
[Bb] [Gm] Maybe it [F] was her flashes of [Gm] the battle come back to me in [Bb] a blur.
[Gm] [Fm] .
All [Eb] that blood, shed crimson clover, [Bb] uh-huh.
Sleep dream was over [Gm] my head, was the one you reached [F] for.
All throughout the [Eb] great war, always remember, [Bb] uh-huh.
Tears on [Gm] the letter I vow not to cry [F] anymore.
If we survived the great war, [Fm] you drew up [Gm] some good faith treaties.
[Bb] I drew [F] curtains closed, drank my poison all alone.
You said I have [Gm] to trust more freely.
[Bb] [Gm] But diesel is [F] desire, you were playing with fire.
And maybe it's [Gm] the path that's talking.
[Bb] [Gm] Screaming from [F] the crib, telling me [Gm] to punish you for things you [Bb] never did.
[Gm] [F] So I justified it, all [Eb] that blood, shed crimson clover, [Bb] uh-huh.
The bombs were close to [Gm] my head, was [Cm] the one you reached [F] for.
All throughout the [Eb] great war, always remember, [Bb] uh-huh.
The burning [Gm] embers I vow not to fight [F] anymore.
If we [Bb] survived the [Eb] great war, [Bb] uh-huh, [Gm] uh-huh.
[F] .
[Cm] It turned [Bb] into something bigger.
[Gm] Somewhere [F] in the haze, got a sense I've [Cm] been betrayed.
You finger [Bb] on my hair, damn straight [Gm] guys.
I sold you down on that icy ground.
[F] Looked up at me with honor [Cm] and truth.
Broken [Bb] and blue, so I called off the [Gm] truce.
That [F] was the night I nearly [Cm] lost you.
[Bb] .
I really thought [Gm] I lost [F] you.
.
We can [Gm] plant a memory garden.
[Bb] .
Say a solemn [F] prayer, place a poppy in my hair.
There's no [Gm] morning glory, it was war, it [Bb] wasn't fair.
[F] We will never go back [Eb] to that blood, shed crimson [Bb] clover, uh-huh.
The worst was [Gm] over my head, was the one you [F] reached for.
All throughout the [Eb] great war, always [Bb] remember, uh-huh.
If, but for [Gm] better, I vowed I would always [F] be yours.
If we survived the [Eb] great war, [Bb] uh-huh, [Gm] uh-huh.
I will always [F] be yours.
If we survived the [Eb] great war, [Bb] uh-huh, [Gm] uh-huh.
I will always [F] be yours.
