[Verse 1]
C#                                              A
Fate, giver of life now is all but dead and gone
C#                                                      A
Pain, left to die in blood-drenched fields or driven off
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
B   C#        A
Now nothing remains
B C#     A E B/D# C#
A ritual tamed
B      C#     A    D
What's taken away
B       C#        A
We will never replace, no
 
 
[Chorus]
        D  C#           D   C#
Now I'm a native son in a foreign land
E B F# D
Oh, oh
        D      C#                D       C#
And I'm just living in a world I can't understand
E B F# D
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
C#                                                 A
Time marching forward brings a slow and cruel decay
C#                                              A
As I fight for the heritage so many died to save
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Now nothing remains
