Verse
Em D
Why don't you tell me what do you need
G Am
There is a blank page for you
Em D
Give me the bones of what you believe
G Am
Maybe they'll save you from me
[Verse 2]
Em D
Will I be the strong hand keeping you safe
G Am
or will I break you in half
C D
and you will never be under my thumb
G Am
but you were not your own land
[Chorus]
C D
See the way we all run
G C
When we know it off by heart
D
Played down, waiting all out
G C
When we win or lose it this time
C D
When the pressure's building for a great white hope
G C
do you give up the things that you love
C D
and the pressure's building till it takes you whole
G C Csus2
can you go back on your own word
[Verse 3]
Em D
All of your brothers, they never died
G Am
For what you kill for slowly
C D
How it will grind you into the ground
G Am
If you should try to hold me
[Chorus]
C D
See the way we all run
G C
When we know it off by heart
D
Played down, waiting all out
G C
When we win or lose it this time
C D \
When the pressure's building for a great white hope |
G C |
do you give up the things that you love | 2x
C D |
and the pressure's building till it takes you whole |
G C |
can you go back on your own word /
