But Tonight We Dance Chords

(ver. 1)
Rise Against
Am           Dm
Breathe deep and easy
G       C
Swallow this pride.
Am          Dm
Stare at my shaking hands
Em                Am
through bone dry, blood shot eyes.

Am          Dm
Clock strip the hours, 
G       C
' count the miles.
F                 G
Will you be there waiting, 
Em    Am
awake until sunrise.

F             G
I’ve traveled in darkness, 
Am             C
for what seems like days,
Dm          G
I come from the sinkholes, 
C               Am
collapsed under this weight.
Am         G
I know not your sorrow,
Am         C
but I know mine,
Dm
So say you'll stay
G                 Am
and dance with me tonight.

Am             Dm
In the glow of twilight,
G                    C
our world is finally calm.
Am                 Dm
I felt it complete me,
Em                  Am
when the stars give way to dawn.

Am         Dm
A language universal,
G                   C
but I speak not its tongue.
F                          G
Is this a night that spins forever,
Em                   Am
or a dawn that never comes.

F             G
I’ve traveled in darkness, 
Am             C
for what seems like days,
Dm          G
I come from the sinkholes, 
C               Am
collapsed under this weight.
Am         G
I know not your sorrow,
Am         C
but I know mine,
Dm
So say you'll stay
G                 Am
and dance with me tonight.

Am          G
Tomorrow we might wake 
C               Am
in solitude and silence
F               C
I will give you everything
G                 Am
if only you would have me.

F                C
Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,
F                     Am
Our hands will quiver caked with soil,
F                      C
Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,
C
But tonight we dance,
Am
But tonight we dance

Solo

F             G
I’ve traveled in darkness, 
Am             C
for what seems like days,
Dm          G
I come from the sinkholes, 
C               Am
collapsed under this weight.
Am         G
I know not your sorrow,
Am         C
but I know mine,
Dm
So say you'll stay
G                 Am
and dance with me tonight.
