[C#m](You! You! )
Verse 1:
Growl:
The artist's [C#m]palette [A]falls
The paint is s[F#m]pilled with [G#]blood
Someone [C#m]shot him [A]down
Left him with[F#m]out a [G#]soul
Sing:
His body's [C#m]laid to [A]rest and

who [C#m]lives and dies Now![A] [D]
Verse 2:
Growl:
His peers won't [C#m]come a[A]round
They're too dis[F#m]graced to [G#]face
Another [C#m]soldier [A]down
His life [F#m]work's a [G#]waste
Sing:
And now these [C#m]walls are [A]bare
No one pre[F#m]tends to [G#]care
A distant [C#m]memo[A]ry
His master[F#m]piece
Growl:
In [G#]disrepair

[C#m] We stand tall and illuminate
We fight through and pre[A]vail[D] [E]
[C#m] We don't stop where
you'd be giving up
We won't ever [A]fail[D] [E]
Verse 3:
Growl:
A martyr [C#m]takes his [A]hand
To make him [F#m]live a[G#]gain
With savage s[C#m]leight of [A]hand
He'll force his [F#m]legs to s[G#]tand
Sing:
A sick and [C#m]gutless [A]joke
A sere[F#m]nading [G#]hoax
Inter[C#m]rupted [A]peace
A waste of [F#m]time
A pa[G#m]thetic excuse for hope
Chorus 3:
Growl:
[C#m] The sleepless nights have no compassion
Sing:
[B] And the dreams that come aren't [A]true
Growl:
A charade of lies unconscious
[C#m] And so much left to be proved
Sing:
But the sun will rise and fall a[B]gain
And the nights will start to [A]shorten
The memories will fade
Growl:
[C#m] into darkness
You!!! can't let it go!!!
Outro:
Growl:
[A] But your world is turned upside [G#]down
It's a panic you can't re[F#m]lease
Once you have it you just can't
[E] Ever ignore it
[A] That's when you realize your [G#]best
Days are behind you
And [F#m]all you ever
live for Is re[E]gret
(hold) C#m
You can't take it away (You! )
End in C#m(hold)
You can't take it away (You! )
