Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Slee[Bsus4]p is too q[Em]uiet[C][Bsus4][Em]
[C]Dreams are too [Em]painful
[C]Truth is the bed[Bsus4] of this[Em]
[C]ocean [Am]of lies.[D]
[C]Sinking through [Em]layers of un
[C]touched ob[Em]livion
[C]Soaking from [Em]spirits but
[C]still far too [Am]dry.[D]
[C]Losing [C#dim]all barbe[Em]d fe[G]nces Luc[Bm]id[C]
[C#dim]- no de f[Em]enses[G][Bm]
[C]"Where is my [Em]mother?" the child
[C]asked the sol[Em] dier.
[C]The soldier [Em]was watching
them [C]both fade [Am]away.[D]
[C]Nine words cre[Em] ate an obli
[C]vio[Em]n ocean:
"Dad [C]tell me,
[Em]will I be [C]dead [Am]very [D]long?"
[C]Los[C#dim]ing all I[Em] liv[G]ed f[Bm]or. Los[C]
[C#dim]ing all I[Em] fought f[G]or[Bm].

[Verse 2]
Oh [Em]God if you save them [C]I swear I'll
always [Bm]hold them in my [C]hand!
Oh God if you save them I'd
[Am]take them west
We'd [B]start [Am]again [G]in the[F]
[Em]promised land.

[Verse 3]
[Am]When life is wearing thin [D]we [Em]pray:
The [Am]gods are close at hand
[D]when [Em]man is [B]astray.
[Am]But when it all is said [D]and [Em]done
Is [Am]he to thank the gods fo[D]r ju[Em]st
taking his son?
[B][Bsus4][B]

[Verse 4]
[C]Sleep is too [Bsus4]quiet,
[Em]dreams are[C] too painf[Em]ul
[C]Truth is [Em]the bed o[E]f [Em]this
[C]ocean [Am]of lies.[D]
[C]Words can cre[Em]ate an ob
[C]livion [Em]ocean[C]:
"Dad tell [Em]me,
will I be [C]dead very [Am]long?"[D]
[C]Los[C#dim]ing all I[A] li[Em]ved f[G]or[Bm].
[C]Los[C#dim]ing all I[Em] fou[G]ght [Bm]for.

[Verse 5]
Oh [Em]God if you save them I [C]swear I'll
always [Bm]hold them in my [C]hand.
Oh God if you save them
I'd [Am]take them west
We'd [B]start [A]again[Am][Bm][F][Em][C][Bm][C][Am]
[B](th[A]en)[Am] in [G]the [Bm]prom[F]ise[Em]d land.
