Song Of Sacrifice

Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G Feel the clock beat on your back D A As you pack your bag Bm G You wonder if your sanity D A Is something you ever had Bm G And you wonder how the darkness D A Panting at your door Bm G Could drive a man to turn his back D A And run for other shores Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G Pull your coat around your throat D A But you just can’t fight them back Bm G The guns, the tears, the whistling fears D A As the future fades to black Bm G And the things you love begin to fade D A Though you try to hold on Bm G As you grip the sands with aging hands D A Til all that’s left is gone A A A G When you can’t go home D A No matter what you say G Can’t go home D A They’ve gone and took it all away G Can’t go home D A To taste the dirt is what I yearn Bm G For the ones who’ve gone, let’s sing a song A Bm Never to return Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G Think on friends and families D A And you wonder how they fared Bm G Torn apart forever D A By the things you'll never share Bm G Feel the sweat roll down your neck D A As you bend from the toil Bm G From white to blue, it’s what you had to do D A For a grave on foreign soil A A A G When you can’t go home D A No matter what you say G Can’t go home D A They’ve gone and took it all away G Can’t go home D A To taste the dirt is what I yearn Bm G For the ones who’ve gone, let’s sing a song A Bm Never to return Bm G D A Bm G D A Bm G D A A A A G D A Of the things we've lost and the things we've gained G A The losses fly off the scale G D A But it's the things we've lost are what haunt us most G A The price of distant prison without bail G When you can’t go home D A No matter what you say G Can’t go home D A They’ve gone and took it all away G Can’t go home D A To taste the dirt is what I yearn Bm G For the ones who’ve gone, let’s sing a song A Bm Never to return
