Forced to Stay Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am][Bb][F][Am][Bbm]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Bound to the trunk [Am]of a
tree stretched out for miles
Cast a shadow on all I know of life
I can't seem to shake the thought
[F]The light is [Em]taken [Am]by the hearse
[F]Its a les[Em]son nev[Am]er learned
[F]Every day[E5] is get[Am]ting worse

[Verse 2]
[F]I diss[E5]olve int[Em]o the p[Am]ain[F]
[E5]Pour myself in[Am]to the guilt
[F]Hanging ove[E5]r me [Am]like skies of [F]rain
[E5]All the blood [Am]that I have spilt

[Verse 3]
Carry [Am]you to heaven's gate
I am forced to stay

[Verse 4]
A [Am]celebration
The finale of life
The marriage between
Soil and [Bb5]bride
[Bbm]The blood

[Verse 5]
[Am]denies the [C#5]rose
To carry [F]only [E5]memor[Am]ies of loss
A [Bb5]vigil [Bbm]on the [Am]side [Bbm]of the [C#5]road
Her body [Am]now belongs to the cross
I am [Bb5]judged [Bb]and set [Am]on f[Bbm]ire[C#5]
At the stand [F]falling [E5]deaf [Am]to their cries
The [Bbm]bleating of a [Am]hundred [Bbm]voices[C#5]
In uni[F]son [E5]asking [Am]me why
Why did I take a [A5]chance and gamble life?
[C#5]Every sign points me back to the dorm

[Verse 6]
In my head, you say I told
[F]you so[Am][Bbm][Am][C#5]
We should've left [F]be [E5]fore [Bbm]the st[Am]orm

[Verse 7]
[Am]
The rain washes you away
The rain washes you away
The rain washes you [Bbm]away
[Am](forced to stay)
The rain washes you away
(forced to stay)

[Verse 8]
The rain washes [Am]you away
(forced to stay)
The rain washes you away

[Outro 1]
(forced to stay)
[Am][Am][Am]
