 Your sword's grown old and rusty
SIm     
MI        
RE
Burnt beneath the rising sun
LA              
FA#m
 It's locked up like a trophy
   
MI              
RE
Forgetting all the things it's done
LA               
FA#m
 And though it's been a long time
       
SIm        
MI        
RE
You're right back where you started from
LA        
FA#m
 I see it in your eyes
     
MI                
RE
That now you're giving up the gun

 When I was seventeen, I had wrists like steel
              
RE
And I felt complete
LA                   
FA#m                   
MI
 And now my body fades behind a brass charade
            
RE
And I'm obsolete
LA                        
FA#m
 But if the chance remains to see those better days
MI                   
RE
 I'd cut the cannons down
LA                        
FA#m
 My ears are blown to bits from all the rifle hits
MI                      
RE
 But still I crave that sound

LA

 I heard you play guitar down at a seedy bar
MI                       
RE
 Where skinheads used to fight
LA                  
FA#m
 Your Tokugawa smile and your garbage style
MI                
RE
 Used to save the night
MI                        
RE
 You felt the coming wave, told me we'd all be brave
MI
 You said you wouldn't flinch
MI                           
RE
 But in the years that passed, since I saw you last

You haven't moved an inch

LA
