Intro: Em C2 G2 D
verse 1:
Em C
You could have tried a little harder,
G
You could have been a little stronger;
D
Needed me more
Em C
With an ocean underneath me
G
Holding on to what tomorrow brings
D
But it's always a storm
Pre-Chorus
C
All this time, keepin' it in
D2
Needed some kind of hope, but you couldn't begin
Em
To see this doubt wellin' up in my eyes
D
Getting harder to swallow this disguise
Em C
I've been losing a war
G
I just can't fight anymore
D
I'm givin' up the gun, givin' up the gun
Em
I'll live to love another day
C
Maybe someday you'll see
G
You made a martyr of me
D
I'm givin' up the gun, givin' up the gun
Em
I'll live to love another day
