Hey guys, really love this song, awesome band! I think this is pretty close, not 100%
about the bridge, any corrections just leave a comment, cheers... Enjoy D
Sounds better if you play barre chords for the chorus if you can, if you cant, its not
important and keep practising, you'll get there D
God Bless D

Fear... Down... Up...
The American situation
Is on our minds again
And I don't know if I've been here before
We would try to go to sleep
But we're running round in circles
For fear of falling down and we cant get up
---Chorus---
And I w[Dm]ait for the morning l[F]ight
To burn a[C]way the slings and arrows
Flying[G] through the night
And I am h[Dm]ome
But I am n[F]ot a man
They will t[C]ry to take the things
That you can't h[G]old down with your hands
So hold them do[F]wn[C]

Always There.. Always There.. Always There..
A war across an ocean
Is like a dream from which you've woken
If you don't like what you see
Then go to sleep
But the smell of smoke is in your hair
And the heavy heart is always there
It's always there
It's always there
It's always there
---Chorus---
And I w[Dm]ait for the morning l[F]ight
To burn a[C]way the slings and arrows
Flying[G] through the night
And I am h[Dm]ome
But I am n[F]ot a man
They will t[C]ry to take your crown
If you can't hol[G]d it down
---Bridge---
[Dm]In the dark[C]ness of the wi[G]nter time
[Dm]I will t[C]ry to take you h[G]ome
[Dm]In the l[C]ong grass of the eve[G]ning time
---Chorus---
And I w[Dm]ait for the morning l[F]ight
To burn a[C]way the slings and arrows
Flying[G] through the night

And we must wait
For this to pass us by

I will try to close my eyes
---Ending Chorus---
And I w[Dm]ait for the mo[F]rning light
To burn a[C]way the slings and arrows
Flying[G] through the night
And we must w[F]ait

So hold it d[F]own[C][G]
