Take Me

            E       B   B/E
I pull my boots off,
                  Asus2          
Throw my weapon on    the floor
A/C#

          E         B/E
I cry my eyes out
                     Asus2      A/C#
In my private little war
         E
Well it seems I've been a soldier
         B/E
Heaven knows I've been no saint
          Asus2
With my camouflage and armor
      A/C#
Cold heart and grease paint

    E
To you this has no meaning
     B/E
The armistice laid down
    Asus2
The armies all are quiet
        A/C#
And the guns don't make a sound, 
'cause you..

CHORUS
E                             
   You melted the steel walls, tore 
C#m7
down the bobwire
Bm7                   Asus2       
   filled in the trenches, 
 C9
demanded a ceasefire
E                         C#m7
   And now you're leavin', there's 
nothin' I can do
Bm7                   Asus2       
   I want you to know, you're gonna 
C9
take me with you

Well now feel the match on suicide 
in the foxhole of my mind
and way off in the distance, the air
 raid sirens whine
and they sing your song of rescue, 
to my tattered worn out shell
you drag me to your safety, from 
this my front line hill

CHORUS

(bridge)
C#m                 D            
  The blood that was spilled in 
                E
the heartache before
C#m                 Asus2    
  Left on massive scars, that I 
      B                            
never, never could ignore to you
 E
