Deserter Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][E][Dm][C][Bm][G][Am][F]
[E][Dm][C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Help me light the way for the brothers we have lost,

[Interlude 1]
their silence on the pain is still replayed for all that we are not.
[Am][Dm]
[Am]

[Verse 2]
Across the [Am]plains of everything,
I see [Dm]wreckage standing where revival used to [Am]be.
No sadder sight than the work their hands abandoned,
[E]leaving vacan[Dm]t towers to cru[C]mble in the[Am] sand.

[Verse 3]
[Am]Fear brings out the worst in men,
they go where there is nothing but destruction, an[F]d they [Am]thrive in it.
Fear brings out the worst in men,
they turn away from anything their prideful [E]heart [F]resists.
[C][Am][G]

[Verse 4]
[F]
Light a candle for the [Am]lost, the ones who [F]wander in the dark,
seeking [Am]help from helpless [C]hearts.[F]
Light a candle for the [Am]lost, I still re[Dm]member,
I still re[E]member who you [Am]are.
(I still remember who
[F]you [Am]are)

[Verse 5]
Help me light [Am]the way for the brothers we have lost,
their silence on the pain is still replayed for all that we are not.

[Verse 6]
I walk the [Am]same path my brothers once began,
but it's much [Dm]lonelier tonight than it was back then.
[Am]Wearied by the storms and subtle songs of discontent,
[Em]I watc[E]hed hero[Dm]es fall along the [C]way where angels fear [G]to t[C]read[G].[Am]

[Verse 7]
[Am]Deserter, your truth is left unsaid.
Deserter, [Am]there's a war,
there's a war inside your [E]head.
[Am]Deserter, I [E]remember [Am]you; There was a dream in your heart,
I could [E]see from the [Am]start, and it never came [C]true.
[Am]Deserter, I remember you; [Am]I see the pain in your eyes
and the fear that you hide from the brothers you once knew.

[Verse 8]
So light a candle for [Am]the lost, the ones who wander in the dark,
seeking [E]help from helpless hearts.
[F]So light a candle for [Am]the lost, the ones who [F]wander in the dark,
seeking help [Am]from helpless [C]hearts.[E][F]
Light a candle for [Am]the lost,
I still re[Dm]member, I still [E]re member...
