Intro: Em C G D

Em C G D
  Do you know what's worth fighting for
Em C G D
  When it's not worth dying for?
Em C G D
  Does it take you breath away
C D
And you feel yourself suffocating?
Em C G D
  Does the pain weight out the pride?
Em C G D
  And you look for a place to hide?
Em C G D
  Does someone break your heart inside?
C D
You're in ruins

Chorus :

G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D C
  Lay down your arms
G D
  Give up the fight
G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D
  Throw up your
C G D
  Arms into the sky
C G D
  You and I
Em C G D
  When you're at the end of the road
Em C G D
  And you lost all sense of control
Em C G D
  And your thoughts have taken their toll
C D
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Em C G D
  Your faith walks on broken glass
Em C G D
  And the hangover doesn't pass
Em C G D
  Nothing's ever built to last
C D
You're in ruins

Chorus :

G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D C
  Lay down your arms
G D
  Give up the fight
G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D
  Throw up your
C G D
  Arms into the sky
C G D
  You and I
Em C G D
  Did you try to live on your own
Em C G B
  When you burned down the house and home?
Em C G B
  Did you stand too close to the fire?
C D
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone

Interlude : 

G D/F# Em D C G D 

C G B Em C G D

Em C G D
  When it's time to live and let die
Em C G D
  And you can't get another try
Em C G D
  Something inside this heart has died
C
You're in ruins

Chorus :

G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D C
  Lay down your arms
G D
  Give up the fight
G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D
  Throw up your
C G D
  Arms into the sky
G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D C
  Lay down your arms
G D
  Give up the fight
G D/F# Em
  One, 21  guns
D
  Throw up your
C G D
  Arms into the sky
C G D
  You and I
