Lay Down

Cm speechless , but the answers in my mouth Cm breathless , the emotions seeping out Cm beyond my control Cm you spoke to my silence , why so cold? Gm you ask for peace , i give you war Gm while you let go , i hold too tightly Gm i take my aim , you hit the floor , Gm Cm i’m not ready to , lay down my arms Cm cracking , my defences breaking down Cm the unravelling , of a rope i put around me Cm you won’t take no for an answer Gm you ask for peace , i give you war Gm while you let go , i hold too tightly Gm i take my aim , you hit the floor Gm Cm i’m not ready to , lay down my arms Cm i didn’t know i was missing out , ’til you lost and i , i won Cm you made me realise my incompleteness alone Cm can no longer live by candlelight Cm Gm when you show me the sun , ohh Gm you ask for peace , i give you war Gm while you let go , i hold too tightly Gm i take my aim , you hit the floor , Gm Cm i’m not ready to , lay down my arms
