chorus:
G Em D C
Your sword's grown old and rusty, burnt beneath the rising sun
G Em D C
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
G Em D C
And though it's been a long time, you're right back where you started from
G Em D C
I see it in your eyes that now you’re giving up the gun
verse 1:
G Em D C
When I was 17, I had wrists like steel and I felt complete
G Em D C
And now my body fades behind a brass charade and I'm obsolete
G Em D C
But if the chance remains to see those better days, I'd cut the cannons down
G Em D C
My ears are blown to bits from all the rifle hits, but still I crave that
sound
chorus:
G Em D C
Your sword's grown old and rusty, burnt beneath the rising sun
G Em D C
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
G Em D C
And though it's been a long time, you're right back where you started from
G Em D C
I see it in your eyes that now you’re giving up the gun
verse 2:
G Em D C
I heard you play guitar down at a seedy bar where skinheads used to fight
G Em D C
Your Tokugawa smile and your garbage style used to save the night
G Em D C
You felt the coming wave, told me we'd all be brave, you said you wouldn't
flinch
G Em D C
But in the years that passed since I saw you last, you haven't moved an inch
chorus:
G Em D C
Your sword's grown old and rusty, burnt beneath the rising sun
G Em D C
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
G Em D C
And though it's been a long time, you're right back where you started from
G Em D C
I see it in your eyes that now you’re giving up the gun
Bridge:
G Em
I see you shine in your way
D C
Go on, go on, go on (repeat)
chorus:
G Em D C
Your sword's grown old and rusty, burnt beneath the rising sun
G Em D C
It's locked up like a trophy, forgetting all the things it's done
G Em D C
And though it's been a long time, you're right back where you started from
G Em D C
I see it in your eyes that now you’re giving up the gun
