Capo 5
G#m B F# E
Why must every battle have to be uphill?
G#m B F# E
And always such a struggle to get across how you feel
G#m B F# E
All this time and still the only thing we’ve learnt
G#m B F# E
Is you tried your hardest, your hardest but for little in return
B F# G#m E
And you give, you give, you give but it’s never enough
B F# G#m E
As watching eyes sharpen their knives waiting for you to slip up
B F# G#m E
You give, you give, you give but it’s never enough
B F# G#m E
There’s always the voice you hear from above screaming
We paid for blood

G#m B F# E
Must of our leaders just lead us astray
G#m B F# E
They say they care but there’s little doubt here we're on our own these days
G#m B F# E
There’s more than enough to go around just don’t filter down from the top
G#m B F# E
You’re working your hardest, your hardest t’keep the little that you’ve got
B F# G#m E
And you give, you give, you give but it’s never enough
B F# G#m E
As watching eyes sharpen their knives waiting for you to slip up
B F# G#m E
You give, you give, you give but it’s never enough
B F# G#m E
There’s always the voice you hear from above screaming
B
We paid for blood
F#

G#m
