[Verse 1]
C#m
Tell me your secrets the
A
damage that you’ve laid
F#m
And know that I’ll keep
G#
them until our dying days
C#m
Don’t make me regret you
A
as time begins to fade
F#m
And spare me the temptation
G#
it’s a useless masquerade
[Refrain 1]
F#m
But time would tell us all
G#
that you were only just a fake
[Chorus 1]
C#m
Cause you wanted war you
A
better hope and wish and pray
F#m
Cause you’ll get blown away
G#
and never thought of here again
C#m
You wanted war but now you’ve
A F#m
fallen to defeat And we all know

that you were meaningless
and weak You wanted war

C#m
I’m taking no chances
A
I’m firing at my will
F#m
You’ve left me know choices
G#
can you just spare the guilt
C#m
Do you take me for some innocent
A F#m
caught up in apathy? You’re mistaken
G#
disillusioned a walking tragedy
[Refrain 2]
F#m
And all the time you
G#
occupied a distant memory
[Chorus 2]
C#m
Cause you wanted war you
A
better hope and wish and pray
F#m
Cause you’ll get blown away
G#
and never thought of here again
C#m
You wanted war but now you’ve
A F#m
fallen to defeat And we all know
G#
that you were meaningless
C#m G#/C C#m G#/C
and weak You wanted war
