BmEm
All I saw was smoke and fire
D
I didnt feel a thing
AG
But suddenly I was rising higher
BmEmD
And I felt like I just made, the biggest mistake
AEm
When I thought about my unborn child
AEm
When I thought about my wife, the answer rang out clear,
A
from somewhere up above
EmG
No greater gift of man, than to lay down his life for love
GD
And I wonder,
ADGD
would I give my life,
ADGD
Could I make that sacrifice
ADG
When it came down to it could I take just a little blood,
A
Yes I would for you.
BmEm
Baby you dont understand,
D
I dont understand it all myself,
AG
But theres a brother on my left, and another on my right.
BmEm
And in his pockets just like mine,
DAG
Hes got a photograph, and theyre waiting for him back home.
A
And its weighing on my mind.
EmA
I dont want to be a hero, I don?t want to die,
EmG
But right here in the moment, you dont think twice.
GD
And I wonder,
ADGD
would I give my life,
ADGD
Could I make that sacrifice
ADG
When it came down to it could I take just a little blood,
A
Yes I would for you.
AEm
You dont think about right.
A
You dont think about wrong.
EmD
You just do what you gotta do to defend your own.
AEmD
And I would do the same, for you.
