The Great War

Taylor Swift

Continues after the ad
Key:
Capo:
D Em7 My knuckles were bruised like
G violets
D Sucker punching walls, cursed you
D as I sleep talked
Em7 G Spineless in my tomb of silence
D Tore your banners down, took the
D battle underground
Em7 G And maybe it was ego swinging
D Maybe it was her
D Em7 Flashes of the battle come back
G D to me in a blur
C9 All that blood shed, crimson clover
G Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
Em7 D My hand was the one you reached for
C9 All throughout the Great War Always remember
G Uh-huh, tears on the letter
Em7 D I vowed not to cry anymore
D If we survived the Great War
Em7 You drew up some good faith
G treaties
D I drew curtains closed, drank my
D poison all alone
Em7 You said I have to trust more
G freely
D But diesel is desire, you were
D playing with fire
Em7 And maybe it's the past that's
G talking
Continues after the ad
D Screaming from a crypt
D Em7 Telling me to punish you for
G things you never did
D So I justified it
C9 All that blood shed, crimson clover
G Uh-huh, the bombs were close and
Em7 D My hand was the one you reached for
C9 All throughout the Great War Always remember
G Uh-huh, the burning embers
Em7 D I vowed not to fight anymore
C9 If we survived the Great War
C G Uh-huh
Em7 D Uh-huh
Am G It turned into something bigger
Em7 D Somewhere in the haze got a sense
Am I'd been betrayed
G Your finger on my hairpin triggers
Em7 Soldier down on that icy ground
D Looked up at me with honor and
Am truth
G Broken and blue, so I called off
Em7 the troops
D Am That was the night I nearly lost you
G Em7 D I really thought I'd lost you
D Em7 G We can plant a memory garden
D Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy
D in my hair
Em7 There's no morning glory, it was
G war, it wasn't fair
D And we will never go back
C9 To that bloodshed, crimson clover
G Uh-huh, the worst was over
Em7 D My hand was the one you reached for
C9 All throughout the Great War Always remember
G Uh-huh, we're burned for better
Em7 D I vowed I will always be yours
C9 'Cause we survived the Great War
G Uh-huh
Em7 Uh-huh
D I'll always be yours
C9 'Cause we survived the Great War
G Uh-huh
Em7 D I vowed I will always be yours
