[VERSE 1]
D                      Em              G
  My knuckles were bruised like violets
                      D       
  Suckerpunching walls, cursed 
                    D
you as I sleep talked
                    Em           G
  Spineless in my tomb of silence
                       D 
  Tore your banners down,
                         D
 took the battle underground
                   Em          G
  And maybe it was ego swinging
                   D
  Maybe, it was her
D                 Em        
  Flashes of the battle come 
                    G     D
back to me in a blur

[CHORUS]
            C
  All that blood shed, crimson clover
     G
  Uhuh, sweet dream was over
      Em                             D
  My hand was the one you reached for
                            C
  All throughout the Great War
                     G
  Always remember uhuh, tears on the lettеr
     Em                     D
  I vowed not to cry anymore
                              D
  If we survived thе Great War

[VERSE 2]
                     Em     
  You drew up some good faith 
           G
treaties
                     D   
  I drew curtains closed, 
                      D
drank my poison all alone
                       Em  
  You said I have to trust 
            G
more freely

                  D    
  But diesel is desire,
                         D
 you were playing with fire
                      Em  
  And maybe it\'s the past 
               G
that\'s talking
                     D
  Screaming from a crypt
D                  Em     
  Telling me to punish you 
                         G
for things you never did
D
  So I justified it

[CHORUS]
            C
  All that blood shed,
crimson clover
     G
  Uhuh, the bombs were close and
      Em                             D
  My hand was the one you reached for
                            C
  All throughout the Great War
                     G
  Always remember uhuh, 
the burning embers
     Em                       D
  I vowed not to fight anymore
                              C
  If we survived thе Great War
C     G       Em    D
  Uh-huh  Uh-huh

[BRIDGE]

Am                G
  It turned into something bigger
Em                   D     
  Somewhere in the haze got
                       Am
 a sense I\'ve been betrayed
                     G
  Your finger on my hair pin triggers
  Em                               
  Hold you down on that icy ground,
        D            
 looked up at me with
                 Am
 honour and truth
              G               
  Broken and blue, so I called
            Em
 off the troops
                D   
  That was the night 
              Am
I nearly lost you

G                     Em      D
  I really thought I lost you

[VERSE 3]
D                   Em          G
   We can plant a memory garden
                 D    
  Say a solemn prayer, 
                       D
place a poppy in my hair
                        Em 
  There\'s no morning glory, 
                           G
it was war, it wasn\'t fair
      D
  And we will never go back

[CHORUS]
           C
  To that blood shed, crimson clover
     G
  Uhuh, the worst was over
      Em                             D
  My hand was the one you reached for
                            C
  All throughout the Great War
                     G
  Always remember uhuh, 
we\'re burned for better
     Em                        D
  I vowed I would always be yours
                                C
  Cause we survived thе Great War
   G     Em
  Uhuh, uhuh
                     D
  I will always be yours
                            C
  \'Cause we survived the Great War
   G
  Uhuh
     Em                       D
  I vowed I will always be yours
