Birthright by Sleeping at Last




       Birthright







No Capo

    G             Am
She was raised by wolves,
       Em              C    
In the warmth of their fur.
   G          Am
Surrounded by fangs,
         Em           C
She knew that she was secure.

   G          Am
Language barriers
        Em            C
Made no difference at all.
            G        Am
When you're truly cared for,
        Em             C
There's no purpose for walls.

     G           Am
His fences stood tall
         Em         C
As the shoulders of old.
       G              Am
But he dreamt that one day
      Em             C
Maybe he'd break the mold.

         G            Am
But time shyly stands still
         Em         C
When you watch it unfold.
           G      Am
From these ivory towers
     Em           C
Freedom is only a ghost.

G        Bm
Right or wrong,
        F#       D
Tension makes us stronger
   C         Em    
By making us weak
C                 D
When we needed to be.

      G       Bm
Privilege and pain
          F#           D     
When compared look the same.
      C          Em
Comprehension begins
C                      D
When we pull back the lens.

     G              Am
They made her their queen
       Em          C
On the day she was born.
            G         Am
They placed on her a crown
           Em      C
She wasn't ready for.

          G        Am
But all impossible odds
    Em         C
Foreshadow our means,
     G        Am
Like paving a road
        Em              C
To kingdoms we've never seen.

   G           Am
He woke up one day,
        Em         C
Written out of the will.
           G         Am
They swore he'd be okay,
            Em       C
With lesser shoes to fill.

      G            Am
"What doesn't kill us
         Em               C
Makes us stronger, " they say.
    G         Am
Our only birthright in this life
       Em             C
Is the breath that we take.

G        Bm
Right or wrong,
        F#       D
Tension makes us stronger
   C         Em    
By making us weak
C                 D
When we needed to be.

      G       Bm
Privilege and pain
          F#           D     
When compared look the same.
      C          Em
Comprehension begins
        C              Em
When we pull back the lens.

    D                G
Our fables tell our truths.
