My knuckles [Gm] were bruised like [Bb] violets
Sucker punching [F] walls cursed you as I sleep-talked
Furnace in [Gm] my tomb of [Bb] silence
Tore your [F] banners down, took the battle underground
And maybe it [Gm] was ego swinging
[Bb] [Gm] Maybe it was [F] her
Flashes of [Gm] the battle come back to me in [Bb] a blur
[Gm] All [Fm]
[Eb] that blood shed, crimson clover, [Bb] uh-huh
Sweet dream was over, [Gm] my hand was the one you reached [F] for
All throughout the [Eb] Great War, always remember, [Bb] uh-huh
Tears on the letter, I vow not to cry [F] anymore
If we survived the Great War
[C] You drew up [Gm] some good faith treaties
[Bb] I drew [F] curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
You said I have [Gm] to trust more freely
[Bb] [Gm] But diesel is [F] desire, you were playing with fire
And maybe it's [Gm] the past that's talking
[Bb] Screaming [F] from the crutch
Telling [Gm] me to punish you for things you [Bb] never did
So [F] I justified it
All [Eb] that blood shed, crimson clover, [Bb] uh-huh
The bombs were close [Gm] and my hand was the one you reached [F] for
All throughout the [Eb] Great War, always remember, [Bb] uh-huh
The burning [Gm] embers I vowed not to fight [F] anymore
If we survived the [Eb] Great War
[Bb] Uh-huh, [Gm] uh-huh
[F]
[Cm] It turned [Bb] into something [Gm] bigger
Somewhere [F] in the haze got a sense I'd [Cm] been betrayed
Your finger [Bb] on my hand can trigger
[Gm] I slowed you down on that icy ground
[F] Looked up at me with honor [Cm] and truth
Broken [Bb] and blue
So I called out [Gm] the truce
That [F] was the night I nearly [Cm] lost you
[Bb]
I really thought [Gm] I lost [F] you
We can [Gm] plant a memory garden
[Bb]
Say a solemn [F] prayer, place a poppy in my hair
There's no [Gm] morning glory, it was war, it [Bb] wasn't fair
[F] We will never go back [Eb] to that blood shed, crimson [Bb] clover, uh-huh
The worst was [Gm] over, my hand was the one you [F] reached for
All throughout the [Eb] Great War, always [Bb] remember, uh-huh
There, burned for [Gm] better, I vowed I would always [F] be yours
If we survived the [Eb] Great War
[Bb] Uh-huh, [Gm] uh-huh
I will always [F] be yours
If we survived the [Eb] Great War
[Bb] Uh-huh, [Gm] I vowed I would always [F] be yours
Sucker punching [F] walls cursed you as I sleep-talked
Furnace in [Gm] my tomb of [Bb] silence
