Birthright (feat. Jon Foreman) by Sleeping At Last Chords

_ She was [Am] raised by the war, _ _ _ in [Em] the warmth of [C] their fur _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] Surrounded [Am] by _ things, she [Em] knew that she [C] was secure
_ _ _ [G] Language _ _ [Am] barriers made [Em] no difference [C] at _ all
_ [G] When you truly [Am] care for, _ there's [Em] no _ [C] purpose for all
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[G] His fence is [Am] too _ _ tall, [Em] as the [C] shoulders of war
_ He [G] _ dreamt that one [Am] day, [Em] maybe he'd break [C] the mold
_ _ [G] Time shyly [Am]
stands still, _ when [Em] you watch it [C] unfold
_ _ From [G] these ivory _ [Am] _ _ towers, _
_ [Em] freedom's [C] only a _ _ hoax _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] Right _ _ _ or _ wrong, tension [B] _ _ _
makes us _ _ stronger
[Eb] _
[C] By _ _ making [Em] us be, _ _ _ _ [C] _ what we needed [D] to _ be _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ Privilege and fame, _ would [B] _ compare, _ look the same _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ Comprehension _ [Em]
became, _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
one bone [D] back in our _ hands
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] They made her [Am] their queen, _ _ _ _ _ [Em] on the day [C] she was born
_ _ [G] Placed on her [Am] a crown, _ she [Em]
wasn't ready [C] for
_ But all [G] _ impossible [Am] _ odds, [Em] _
foreshadow [C] our means _ _
[G] Like paving [Am] a road, _ _ to [Em] kingdoms we've [C] never seen
_ He _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [G] woke up [Am] one day, _ _ [Em] written out of [C] the will
_ As [G] for he'd be _ [Am] okay, _ with lesser [Em] _
shoes [C] to fill
_ _ But what [G] _ doesn't kill us, makes us [Em]
stronger [C] they say _ _
[G] Our only [Am] birthright in this life, is [Em] the breath that [C] we _ take _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] Right _ _ [G] or _ wrong, tension [B] _ _ _
_ makes us _ _ stronger _
[C] By _ _ _ making [Em] us be, _ _ _ [C] _ _
what we needed to [D] _ be _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ Privilege [G] and fame, _ _ would [B] compare, _ _ look the _ _ [B] same
_ _ [C] _ _ _ Comprehension _
[Em] became, _ _ when we [C] _
pull _ back [Em] the lens _
_ [D] Our _ _ _ fables _ _ tell _ [Am] our [C]
tale
