Verse:
Am C G D
Throw down the sword, the fight is done and over
F C Gsus4 G
We neither lost and neither won
Am C G D
To cast away the fury of the battle
F C D
And turn my weary eyes for home
F G7 C C/B
There were times when I stood at death's own door
Am G Fmaj7
Only hoping for an answer.
Am / / / C / / / G / / / D / / /
F / / / C / / / Gsus4 / / / G / / /
Throw down the sword and leave the glory
A story time can never change
To walk the road, the load I have to carry
A journey's end, a wounded soul
There were times when I stood at death's own door
Only searching for an answer.
