C C Am F

C
You called it no man's land
Em                            F
With machine guns blasting to hell
                                   C            G
I let my guard down and carried my heart so far away
         C                                             Em       
And in a letter sent, that I don't want to be here any more than them
                           Am 
I'm sipping on coffee gone stale again
                             F                G
Is this how it tastes to mix drinks with sour grapes?
 
   Am                  C                   F
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
   Am                  C                   F
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
                     G 
We can argue who was first to bleed
                         C 
Or let your walls do the talking

Interlude: Em  C  Em  C Em  Em  C
G
(We're falling faster now)

Em  C  Em  C Em  Em  C  

G                        Am    C
But in the middle of the night
Em                      Am     C    
I lay there frozen in a memory
Em                Am   C
Of us down by the river
Em              F             G
With your hands clenched into mine
               Am     C
Well I still remember
Em                   Am   C
All the promises you swore
Em                 Am   C
That we'd never outlive
Em                   F               G
Please tell me you remember, forever friends

   Am                  C                   F
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
   Am                  C                   F
So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute
                     G
We can argue who was first to bleed
                         C
Or let your walls do the talking

Interlude: C  C  Am  F

              C                     Em
'Cause in the red light I'm singing all alone
             C                        F
I watched my favorite dream fall from grace to stone
              C                     Em
Hiding in the basement, we kept our voices low
                     Am                          G
You gave me that old troubled look that said, "I don't know"

C                       Em
Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire
Am                     F          G
We are the last fight, we are the fire


And just like your mother said
C                        Em
(Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire)

You're too pretty and young for this

You'll make it better on the outside
Am                      F          G
(We are the last fight, we are the fire)

Just keep your head and keep your fire.
