We need them
[C] [G] [Em]
back there, on the wall.
Rise [C] oh fallen [Em] fighters, rise and take your stance again.
You see who [C] fight and [Em] run away, live to [C] fight another [G] day.
We [Em] need them back [Am] [Gm] [E]
there, [C] on [G] the [E]
[C] [Em]
wall.
[C] [G] [Em] I know that [C] [Em] talk is cheap, but the heart's not a bottle, it's a sweet agave puree.
