Intro: Am

Verse:
Am                      E
It was the coldest night of the year,
G                         D
Snow-covered street lamps and Belvedere,
Am
The moon was just a sliver,
E
The light was fading,
G
The war was on its way,
D
And we were waiting,


F             E      
You asked me how long I'd stay by your side,
G                F
So I answered with only just one reply,

Chorus:
Am               F
Till the casket drops,
          D    E
Till my dying day,
Am                  F
Till my heartbeat stops,
          D         E
Till my legs just break,
Am            F
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       D       E
whoa, whoa, oh,
Am          F
Whoa, whoa, oh,
E
Till the casket drops,

Verse:
Am                        E
A house made out of glass will surely shatter,
G                         D
So we built a fortress of red bricks and ladders,
Am
The ground, it started shaking,
E
The bombs are falling,
G
We could've walked away,
D
We had a warning,


F                      E
You asked me how long I'd stay by your side,
G                    F
So I answered with only just one reply,

Chorus:
Am               F
Till the casket drops,
          D    E
Till my dying day,
Am                  F
Till my heartbeat stops,
          D         E
Till my legs just break,
Am            F
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       D       E
whoa, whoa, oh,
Am          F
Whoa, whoa, oh,
E
Till the casket drops,


Am
So lay your burden down, baby,
G
Lead me out the door,
D
We can't escape this ricochet,
E
I'm ready for this war,


Am
So lay your burden down, baby,
G
Lead me out the door,
D
We can't escape this ricochet,
E
I'm ready for this war,


Am               F
Till the casket drops,
          D    E
Till my dying day,
Am                  F
Till my heartbeat stops,
          D         E
Till my legs just break,
Am               F
Till the casket drops,
          D    E
Till my dying day,
Am                  F
Till my heartbeat stops,
          D         E
Till my legs just break,
Am            F
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       D       E
whoa, whoa, oh,
Am          F
Whoa, whoa, oh,
E                      Am
Till the casket drops
