————————————————————————
In days of peace,
Sweet smell- ing summer nights
Of wine and song.
Dusty pave- ment, burning feet.
Why am I cry- ing? I want to know.
How can I smile and make it right
For sixty days and eighty nights,
And not give in and lose the fight?
Pre-chorus: Em G A D (2x)
F# A B E (2x)
B C# D (2x)
Chorus:
G A D
I’m going back to the ones that I know
G C B
With whom I can be what I want to be.
G A D
Just one week for the feeling to go,
G A D Em (intro riff again)
And with you there to help me then it probably will.
Verse 2 (lyrics):
I won’t go down
Acting the same old play.
Gave sixty days for just one night.
Don’t think I’d make it, but I’d bet I might.
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Intro riff, then ( Em D ) a couple of times
Chorus (2x)
Intro riff, then more ( Em D ) behind solo, end on Em.
