GREEN DAY - 21 Guns


INTRO

Dm  Bb  F  C

Dm  Bb  F  C

 

Dm       Bb                          F            C

Do you know what's worth fighting for,

Dm          Bb            F        C

When it's not worth dying for?

Dm       Bb           F          C

Does it take your breath away

               Bb                       C

And you feel yourself suffocating?

Dm         Bb              F            C

Does the pain weigh out the pride?

Dm         Bb              F           C

And you look for a place to hide?

Dm         Bb                    F          C

Did someone break your heart inside?

                Bb      C

You're in ruins

 

CHORUS

F      C     Dm 

One, 21 guns

C                        Bb

Lay down your arms

F                   C

Give up the fight

F      C     Dm 

One, 21 guns

C                       Bb    F           C

Throw up your arms into the sky,

             Bb  F  C

You and I

 

Dm              Bb      F                C

When you're at the end of the road

Dm         Bb       F                C

And you lost all sense of control

Dm           Bb                  F                C

And your thoughts have taken their toll

                  Bb                                            C

When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul

Dm   Bb                   F          C

Your faith walks on broken glass

Dm        Bb            F          C

And the hangover doesn't pass

Dm           Bb   F           C

Nothing's ever built to last

                Bb         C

You're in ruins.

 

CHORUS

F      C     Dm

One, 21 guns

C                       Bb    F           C

Throw up your arms into the sky,

             Bb  F  C

You and I

 

D          Bb      F                     C

Did you try to live on your own

D               Bb                       F                 A

When you burned down the house and home?

D           Bb           F                  A

Did you stand too close to the fire?

           Bb                            C                       F

Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone

 

F   C   Dm   C   Bb   F   C

F   C   Dm   C   Bb   F   C

Bb   F   A


Dm   Bb   F   C

 Dm   Bb   F   C


Dm          Bb       F                  C

When it's time to live and let die

Dm         Bb          F          C

And you can't get another try

Dm           Bb             F              C

Something inside this heart has died

                Bb

You're in ruins.

You and I
