Past The Gates Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C][G][F][D]

[Verse 1]
[Am]The truth
is they don't give us much [C]time
And it [G]wears us down and keeps
[C]fuelin' the grind
We [F]take our shots and shield our pride
[Dm]We lift [D]these stones with the
[Am]fire inside
Runnin' through a [Dm]maze
and we're [Am]try ing to get a[C]head
In a rat race chasin' for
our daily bread
There's no [F]finish line out
there [C]in [Dm]the streets
Well, [F]what if there's somethin' more
than what your [Gsus4]eyes beli[G]eve

[Verse 2]
[Am]Now that I can see this
[C]Light on down the road
So [F]far I know there's something [Dm]else
If [Am]I live or die I kno[C]w it won't be easy
[F]Past the gates of heaven and
hell
[Dm][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 3]
It's hard to know where it starts or ends
It's the [C]simple things
that keep pullin' us in
We [F]own these chains that pull the weight
And [Dm]do our best just to dance with fate
And [Am]what if there's more than your
heart can bleed
When the [C]signs aren't clear and
it's hard to breathe
And you're [F]so fed up with
how it's supposed [Dm]to be
Yeah, there's [F]gotta be somethin' more
than what your [Gsus4]eyes beli[G]eve

[Verse 4]
[Am]Now that I can see this
[C]Light on down the road
So [F]far I know there's
something [Dm]else[Dsus4][Dm]
[Am]If I live or die I [C]know it won't be easy
[F]Past the gates of heaven and [Dsus4]hell[Dm]

[Verse 5]
Am [Am]I standin' on [C]hollow ground
Cause there's [F]nowhere left
to [Dm]run t[Dsus4]o now[Dm]
And it's [Am]takin' its toll
[C]It wears on my soul
[F]I know there must be somethin' [Dm]else
Pas[Am]t the gates of heaven
Pas[C]t the gates of heaven
Pas[F]t the gates of heaven
and [Dsus4]hell[Dm][Am]

[Verse 6]
Now that I can see this
[C]Light on down the road
So [F]far I know there's
[Dsus4]something [Dm]else[C]
If [Am]I live or die I kno[C]w it won't be easy
[F]Past the gates of heaven and hell
