Am
Why fleeting my faith I do not know
Em
Are we forever trapped?
Am
Between taking hold and letting go
Em
That thunder in our breast
Am
I took your heart - I took your truth
Em
I took your love and made it mine
Am
Are we two part are we to choose - Oh
Em
Between walls and swine

[Chorus]
Am
Vaterland
Em
Vaterland
Am
Vaterland - Was bist du mir
Em
Vaterland - Was bin ich dir

[Verse 2]
Am
Now half in wonder half ingest
Em
We swear to always be there
Am
Your black sun tearing and our chest
Em
What bitter burden to bear
Am
Now who commands us, who holds way
Em
Over our frightened flesh
Am
Your dream is ours to smash and steal
Em
As centuries turn to ash

[Chorus]
Am
Vaterland - Was bist du mir
Em
Vaterland - Was bin ich dir
Am
Vaterland - Die Sonne sei dir Amme
Em
Oh, Vaterland - Säugt dich mit wilder Flamme
Am
Vaterland - Was bist du mir
Em
Vaterland - Was bin ich dir
Am
Vaterland - Die Sonne sei dir Amme
Em
Oh, Vaterland - Säugt dich mit wilder Flamme

[Bridge]
           Am
I feel the war coming
           Em
I feel the war coming - you keep crawling
           Am
I feel the war coming - Vaterland
         Em
You keep crawling

[Outro]
           Am
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Em
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Am
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Em
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Am
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Em
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Am
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
           Em
I feel the war coming - You keep crawling
         Am
You keep calling for...
