O.A.R. - War Song

      
 
 Fantastic song by an awesome band. I wanted to do this cover for a gig but I couldn't
 the chords so I figured I'd draw it up myself and post it online. If you have any
 or concerns about it please don't hesitate to e-mail me; nlt0002@auburn.edu
 
 (p.s. the timing for the little riffs are off but the notes are there so you can just
 to the song to figure it out.)
 
 Am    C  
 Oh my God
 G            Em                Am C 
 Tell me this won't last forever
 G            Em           Am C 
 Tell me that I'm not alone
 G            Em                   Am C E 
 Tell me this will come together now

 Am                                    
 Packed my things up just the other day
 C                                              
 Said my goodbyes to all these things I've saved
 F                                          
 Out in the driveway we laugh under the moon
 G                                                Am 
 Among my friends for now but I'll be leavin' soon
 
       C                 F  
 Many days from now I'm sure
               G               Am 
 I'll be back among your graces
          C               F  
 And with you I won't pretend
            F     
 No not at all, Oh

 Am                                     
 Crack the morning, up and running quick
 C                                             
 No sleep again last night that's the way it is
 F                                 
 Out in the open under broken skies
 G                                            
 I feel every foot step I see everybody's eyes
 Am                                     
 Oh and this is summer, in another world
 C                                     
 Far from the driveway and my baby girl
 F                                            
 Soon come the winter and with it quiet nights
 G                                
 And darker days and darker fights
 
       C                 F  
 Many days from now I'm sure
               G              Am 
 I'll be back among your faces
          C             F    
 And with you I won't pretend
            E 
 No not at all
 
 Am                     F 
 Oh, the theater is burnin
             C                     G 
 Over at midnight but never like this
 Am              F  
 Hot under the fire,
                    C                       G 
 The stars are all falling but never like this
        G                  F  
 No, I hope you never see this
 
 Am                 F  
 Wait, wait for my love
           C              G     
 Don't forget me never let me go
         Am                 F 
 If you wait, wait for my love
         C            G        
 I'll remember never let you go
            F              
 Until I'm fine, fine, fine
            F           C  
 Until I'm fine, fine, fine

 Am                    
  To be back in my room
                              C   
 I have the same dream every night
                    F    
 Just me, among my things
                                               G    
 No one else is there, there's no one left to fight,
                         Am 
 Just me, among my things
 
       C                 F  
 Many nights from now I know
               G               Am 
 I'll be back among your graces
          C               F  
 Until then I'll just pretend
               E      
 That I'm not cold, oh
 
 Am    C  
 Oh my God
 G            Em                Am C 
 Tell me this won't last forever
 G            Em           Am C 
 Tell me that I'm not alone
 G            Em                
 Tell me this will come together
 Am    C       E   
 Oh my God you know
 
 Am                 F  
 Wait, wait for my love
           C             G        
 Don't forget me never let me down
          Am                 F  
 And just wait, wait for my love
         C            G        
 I'll remember every one of you
 
          Am                 F  
 And just wait, wait for my love
 C                  G  
 Wait, wait for my love
 Am           F  C G 
 Wait for my love
 
            F           C  
 Until I'm fine, fine, fine
            F           C  
 Until I'm fine, fine, fine
          F           C  
 I'll be fine, fine, fine
          F     C     Am 
 I'll be fine, fine, fine
