Intro: Gm

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


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

Chorus:
Gm               Eb
Till the casket drops,
          C    D
Till my dying day,
Gm                  Eb
Till my heartbeat stops,
          C         D
Till my legs just break,
Gm            Eb
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       C       D
whoa, whoa, oh,
Gm          Eb
Whoa, whoa, oh,
D
Till the casket drops,

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


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

Chorus:
Gm               Eb
Till the casket drops,
          C    D
Till my dying day,
Gm                  Eb
Till my heartbeat stops,
          C         D
Till my legs just break,
Gm            Eb
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       C       D
whoa, whoa, oh,
Gm          Eb
Whoa, whoa, oh,
D
Till the casket drops,


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


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


Gm               Eb
Till the casket drops,
          C    D
Till my dying day,
Gm                  Eb
Till my heartbeat stops,
          C         D
Till my legs just break,
Gm               Eb
Till the casket drops,
          C    D
Till my dying day,
Gm                  Eb
Till my heartbeat stops,
          C         D
Till my legs just break,
Gm            Eb
Whoa, oh, whoa,
       C       D
whoa, whoa, oh,
Gm          Eb
Whoa, whoa, oh,
D                      Gm
Till the casket drops
