[Intro 1]
[C][G][Abm][E][C][G][Abm][E][Em]
[C][E]

[Verse 1]
[F]Every
[C]day [E]on my way hom[F]e[C][E]
The clouds would [F]break and the [G]angels
Would sing their refrain
[C][G][C][G][C][G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 2]
[E]this
[F]world's an ungodly [C]place[E]
Strangled [F]by vines [C]unchaste
[E]So with my shi[F]ning blade of ste[G]el

[Interlude 1]
I would cut a path wide
[C][G][E]

[Verse 3]
dipped in [F]the ink of the [C]fight[E]
Written [F]clean through the [C]night[E]
Mark my [F]words upon the [G]front page
To set my world straight
[C][Eb][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[F]
[Bb]It's too late,[C]
[F]it'[Bb]s too[Eb] lat[G]e[C][F][Bb][C][F][Bb]
[Eb]It's [G]too[C] late,[F]
[Bb]it's too late[C][F][Bb][Eb][G][C][F][Bb][G]
Just like I found [Am]it, my world is [F]split

[Interlude 2]
Right down the spine
[C][E][C]

[Verse 5]
[E]years bled dry now rip[F]e for a r[C]eckoning
[E]My blade's back sla[F]sh beckoning
[C]Sli[E]ce my wounds[F] and I make t[G]he sign
one more time
[C][F][C][Cm][C][G][C]

[Verse 6]
[Bb]
come [C]on. [F]com[Bb]e on[Eb].[G][C][F][Bb]
come [C]home. [F]com[Bb]e ho[Eb]me[G][C]
[F]Yea[Bb]h it's too lat[C]e, it'[F]s t[Bb]oo l[Eb]ate[G][C][F]
[Bb]It's too late,[C] to[F][Bb][Eb][G][C][F][Bb][C][F][Bb][Eb]
[G]ref[C]rai[Bb]n...[G]refrain...refrain...

[Verse 7]
did those [G]angels ever [Am]sing?
[F]Sliced my world in [C]two
