[Verse 1]
D
Betrayed my blood
To save my son
Am
A hopeless choice to make
D Am
But who am I, if not the one who's meant to keep him safe?
F C Am
Is trust and loyalty still justified
F Dm C Em
If I deny him of a better life?

Gabriel has always been
Bb Am
The strength I call upon
Dm
But nothing breaks
A father's will
Bb C
To do what must be done
Am Bb

F Am Bb
Abandon all our plans for revolution?
A Gm Em C#
Where hope and freedom die by morning light
[Verse 3]
Dm Bb A
Evangeline, I swore to you to love and guide our son
Dm Bb C
Destiny has shown its face, and now the time has come
Am Bb
Desperation blinds me
F C D
And through these bloodstained eyes I see the light
Bb Am D
A better life is worth this sacrifice
