The Ruins Of My Life

(início)

Em                                G
The land was then young, I was fighting for it like everyone
Em                        G
Ready to die for the cause, for my King, for my Lord
Em                      G
You were my reason to live, to fight another day
Em                         G
You were the only one for me, and you were only for me
F       G              Am
Another year I would be gone
F           G              Am
The war was leading us so far apart
F          G                A#
I built a house to keep you there
        C              D#     F
Waiting for me, waiting
G        Em          A           D
No one remembers my face nor my name
       G         Em          A
In a dream, I'd stay here forever
      G          Em     Bm              D
Headstone on my grave, words carved in vain
            G         Em
All these wounds only heal when I'm home
Em                          G
The Taste of their blood in my mouth, and the scent of victory
Em                    G
Scarred my soul for life, this man was not me
Em                       G
Love is a game for the weak to play, they said
I loved and love made me many times stronger
F        G              Am
Another year I would be gone
F            G            Am
The war was leading us so far apart
F          G                  A#
I built a house to keep you there
        C             D#      F
Waiting for me, waiting
G        Em          A          D
No one remembers my face nor my name
       G        Em          A
In a dream, I'd stay here forever
     G           Em      Bm            D
Headstone on my grave, words carved in vain
            G           Em
All these wounds only heal when I'm home

"Everything ends...Everything dies
Bm
Now I know the Legends only lived in his lies"
Em            Bm          G                       A
My long and winding road, river and trees by the hills we lived on
Em              Bm               G         A
The ruins of my life I find, a signet ring on the ashes
Em         Bm                   G                  A
I know my Lord betrayed me, my reason to live was taken away
Em           Bm               G            A
I carry my loved one to the hills we loved, for the last time
G                Bm
I close your eyes, kiss you goodbye
G                D
The only one who ever loved me
G                     Bm              G          D
I'm crushed inside, darling, my life...It shall end here

Now the Darkness covers me
