The Keeper

A D A Dm A A I come from far away D A My boots don’t know this ground D A But they know it’s real A It doesn’t take too long D A For this road to become D A A battlefield D A D And before I let one more fire go out A F#m E D Understand that I won’t give one inch of ground A D A From beneath yours and my feet D A D A Whatever the price happens to be D A E I may not be the keeper of the flame D A But I am the keeper-er-er-er A Beauty and truth collide D A Where love meets genocide D A Where laughter meets fear A Confusion all around D A And as I try to feed these mouths D D That have never known singing A D A D And before I let one more tear hit the ground A F#m E D I will be the one standing between you and the sound A D A Of the rounds echoing out D A Out of the dark D A The smoke and the spark D A E Aimed at the heart of the flame D A I am the keeper ooooh A I cannot see the light D A At the end of the tunnel tonight D A My eyes are weary A D A D And before I let one more life get erased A F#m E D From the ashes I will rise for you and the ghosts A D A Of the names the faces and frames D A D A Through love and the pain for you I remain D A Though I’m not worthy of being E The keeper of the flame D A I am the keeper yeahhhhh D A I am the keeper
