Battle Scars

D
      Oh-ohhhh-oh-ohhhh
A
      Oh-ohhhh-oh-ohhhh
D/F#                 G
      Oh-ohhhh-oh-ohhhh-ohhhhh
                            D
This is an anthem for the homesick, for the beaten,
     A/C#
the lost, the broke, the defeated.
                Bm
A song for the heartsick, for the standbys,
        G                        A
Living life in the shadow of goodbye.
          D
Do you remember when we learned how to fly?
                 A/C#
We'd play make-believe; we were young and had time on our side.
         Bm
You're stuck on the ground,
Got lost, can't be found.
       G                          A
Just remember that you're still alive.
                D
I'll carry you home.
                 A
No, you're not alone.
               D/F#
Keep marching on,
This is worth fighting for,
                   G
You know we've all got battle scars.
           D
You've had enough,
                A
But just don't give up.
               D/F#
Stick to your guns,
You are worth fighting for.
                   G
You know we've all got battle scars.
              D
Keep marching on.
                         D
This is a call to the soldiers, the fighters,
      A/C#
the young, the innocent, and righteous.
                     Bm
We've got a little room to grow.
Better days are near,
G                        A
Hope is so much stronger than fear.
            D
So if you jump, kid, don't be scared to fall.
                    A/C#
We'll be kings and queens in this dream, all for one, one for all.
         Bm
You can light up the dark,
There's a fire in your heart,
           G                A
Burner brighter than ever before.
                D
I'll carry you home.
                 A
No, you're not alone.
               D/F#
Keep marching on,
This is worth fighting for,
                   G
You know we've all got battle scars.
           D
You've had enough,
                A
But just don't give up.
               D/F#
Stick to your guns,
You are worth fighting for.
                G               A
You know we've all got battle scars.
Keep marching...
G
On and on, like we're living on a broken record.
A
Hope is strong, but misery's a little quicker.
Bm
Sit, and we wait, and we drown there,
Thinking, "Why bother play when it's unfair?"
G
They say life's a waste, I say they lack belief.
             A
They tell me luck will travel, I tell 'em that's why I've got feet.
Bm
Left, right, left, right,
Bm
Moving along to the pulse of a heartbeat.
G
This could be the last chance you have to fly.
A
Do you like the ground? Want it to pass you by?
Bm
Man, you had it all when you were just kid.
Do you even remember who you were back then?
G
What do you want in life? Will you be twice as strong?
A
What would you sacrifice? What are you waiting on?
      Bm
Don't stop, march on.
                D
I'll carry you home.
                 A
No, you're not alone.
               D/F#
Keep marching on,
This is worth fighting for,
                G
You know we've all got battle scars.
              D
You've had enough,
                     A
But just don't give up.
               D/F#
Stick to your guns,
You are worth fighting for.
                G
You know we've all got battle scars.
               D
Keep marching on.
