After The Flags

Am C G

[Verse 1]
Am
"But still it moves" I heard you cry
C                  G
Matters of fact attract, with time 
to bide
Am
Thread sisters stay on my side
C               G
Heavy headed when we collide

[Verse 2]
Am
Ten sounds at once reverberate
C                  G
Coin-operations self-sustain in a 
cloud
Am
Compulsion caught will penetrate
C                         G
"Come on son, do your country 
proud!"

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am                      Em
Lead us down to the ocean
    C                              
And wash our hands of campaigns for
             F    Am G
 the self-assured now
Am                 Em
Fading white in surrender
     C                             
And weary from the beating sun that
F            G
 blinds you

[Chorus 1]

Am
Take a hit for catharsis
C
Take a hit for them all
G                                 
After the flags they're selling 
              Am
off the wall
I wanna die for a reason
C
I wanna kill for a cause
Am
Before they fall

[Verse 3]
Am
The fall won't kill but it's gonna 
hurt
C                               G
And for a moment clear the haze from
 your eyes
Am
To redefine the lines of flesh and 
dirt
C                        G
A sudden tenderness, viscera 
surprise
Am
Dressed in red to mourn the dead
C                             
6 o'clock, do you watch just to 
  G
wince at this?
Am
Eyes are wide; we have been misled
C                         
And now you face the modern 
      G
synthesis

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am                      Em
Straighten out your fiction
   C                               
As means to ends and ends to 
             F       G
meaning guide you

[Chorus 2]
Am
Take a hit for catharsis
C
Take a hit for them all
G                                 
After the flags they're selling 
              Am
off the wall
I wanna die for a reason
C
I wanna kill for a cause
G                                 
After the flags I'm nobody at all
  Em

Take a hit for catharsis

G                                 
After the flags they're selling 
              Am
off the wall
N.C.
(After the flags they're selling off
 the wall)
If I can't reach you with reason
C
You set us up for a fall
G                                 
After the flags you're nobody at 
      Em
all
