Am                 F                                       
Children                                                   
                   C          G                 Am       F 
Are lost in the sand clearing roads with little hands      
          C                   E                Am       F  
Trying to join their father's castles together again       
          C         G                    Am        F       
Will they make it?  Who knows where or when                
                G                                          
Old wounds will mend                                       
                                                           
Am                F                                        
Shots                                                      
        C             G              Am         F          
Ringing all along the borders can be heard                 
       C           E            Am      F                  
Comin' down like a venom in the sky                        
          C             G             Am        F          
Cutting through the air faster than a bird                 
       G                                                   
in the night                                               
                                                           
Machines                                                   
Are winding their way along, looking strong                
Building roads and bringing back loads                     
of building materials                                      
in the night                                               
                                                       
Men                                                    
Are trying to move the borders on the ground          
lines between the different spots that each has found  
but back home another scene was going down             
in the night                                           
                                                       
Lust                                                   
Comes creepin' through the night to feed on hearts     
of suburban wives who learned to pretend               
when they met their dreams end                         
in the night                                           
                                                       
Am             G             Fmaj7                     
But I'll never use your love you know I'm not like that
Am             G             Fmaj7                     
and so if you give your heart to me                    
Dm           E7                                        
I promise to you                                       
Dm           E7                                        
whatever we do                                         
Fmaj7       G         C       Fmaj7    C       Fmaj7   
that I will always be true
