Time Immemorial by Markéta Irglová
Time Immemorial
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
F#m C#m E B x2
[Verse 1]
F#m C#m
Wounded soldier, rest a while.
E B
In this house you’re safe from harm.
F#m C#m B
Let the war fight itself.
F#m C#m
Don’t be alarmed-
E B
Though I wear a uniform of your army’s enemy,
F#m C#m B
I am no enemy to you.
[Bridge]
A C#m
We didn’t start this war, or the one before.
E B
All we’ve ever wanted was to live in peace.
[Chorus]
F#m C#m
War is the mindset of those threatened by the thought
E B
Of losing power, and control, don’t you see
F#m C#m B
Fear has been our sole enemy.
F#m C#m
But you and I have minds of our own,
E B
We can choose to disengage,
F#m C#m
From the collective misperception,
E B F#m C#m E
Of the kind of war that’s being waged here.
B F#m C#m E B
We’re living in fear.
[Verse 2]
F#m C#m
Life, like the stream running through,
E B
The many hills and plaines of landscape you,
F#m C#m B
To meet the greater body of the sea.
F#m C#m
There, not diminished but built upon,
E B F#m
It returns itself to where it came from,
C#m B
So can it be with you and me.
[Bridge]
A C#m
We are the heart and soul of our greater whole.
E B
All we’ve ever wanted was to come home to ourselves.
[Chorus]
F#m C#m
Since time immemorial there’s been conflict and war,
E B
Each new one greater than the one before, don't you see?
F#m C#m B
We have been our worst enemy.
F#m C#m
But you and I can break the circle,
E B
We don’t have to feed the flames.
F#m C#m
Pointing fingers, blaming others.
E B F#m C#m E
We are all to blame around here,
B F#m C#m E B
For living in fear.
[Outro]
F#m C#m E B
Aaaaaaaaaaaa x4
F#m C#m E B x2
