After Midnight Project


Tom: F

       Dm       Bb             F     G
I just got the call and it's time to go
          G              Dm
Where the oil falls like snow
        G                 Dm
And the bullets steal the show
       Dm          Bb                     F
To my family, my brothers, and all of my friends
        G          G           Dm
Say goodbye; I am going off to war
         G           Dm
And I am not coming home

( Dm )

Dm        Bb             F            G
One last kiss we better make this one count
          G                          Dm
'Cause I can't seem to deal with the fact
                 G       Dm
That I may never see you again
          Dm           Bb                      F
Send this letter to my mother who cries in her bed
       G                  G                 Dm
She is scared; 'cause her boy's gone off to war
         G          Dm
And he's not coming home

Dm   Am   Dm       C         Bb  Dm
Hold my crown as we follow the sounds
Bb   Dm
Ooooooooh
Dm          Am           Dm
Choking the trigger is a chore
          C           Bb  Dm
We're all criminals of war
Bb   Dm
Ooooooooh

Bb                Am
That boy that you loved
      Eb               Dm
He is gone, he is lost forever
Bb               Am
He just killed a man
        Eb
Who had promised his daughter
     Dm
He'd sing to her again
Bb  Am  Eb Dm
La la la la......
Bb  Am  Eb Dm
La la la la......
F
You just sit back
F               Dm  Dm
I'll take lives away

Dm   Am   Dm       C         Bb  Dm
Hold my crown as we follow the sounds
Bb   Dm
Ooooooooh
Dm          Am           Dm
Choking the trigger is a chore
          C           Bb  Dm
We're all criminals of war
Bb   Dm
Ooooooooh
