[Verse]
Dm      F             C          G6
Do you know what's worth fighting for?
Dm      F             C          G6
When it's not worth dying for?
Dm      F             C          G6
Does it take your breath away
Dm      F             C          G6
And you feel yourself suffocating?
 
Dm      F             C          G6
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
Dm      F             C          G6
And you look for a place to hide?
Dm      F             C          G6
Did someone break your heart inside?
Dm
You're in ruins
 
 
[Chorus]
F  Am   Dm
One, 21 guns
C            Dm    Am           C
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
F  Am   Dm
One, 21 guns
C            Dm    Am         C         Dm     C
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I
 
 
[Verse]
Dm      F             C          G6
When you're at the end of the road
Dm      F             C          G6
And you lost all sense of control
Dm      F             C          G6
And your thoughts have taken their toll
Dm      F             C          G6
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
 
Dm      F             C          G6
Your faith walks on broken glass
Dm      F             C          G6
And the hangover doesn't pass
Dm      F             C          G6
Nothing's ever built to last
Dm
You're in ruins
 
 
[Chorus]
F   Am  Dm
One, 21 guns
C            Dm      Am          C
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
F   Am  Dm
One, 21 guns
C            Dm      Am          C
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I
 
 
[Verse]
Dm       F       C       G6
Did you try to live on your own
Dm       F       C          G6
When you burned down the house and home?
Dm       F       C       G6
Did you stand too close to the fire
Dm          F              C             G6
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?
 
 
[Solo]
Dm  F  C  G6  (x5)
 
 
[Verse]
Dm         F       C          G6
When it's time to live and let die
Dm         F       C          G6
And you can't get another try
Dm         F       C          G6
Something inside this heart has died
Dm
You're in ruins
 
 
[Chorus]
F   Am    Dm
One, 21 guns
C           Dm      Am          C
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
 
F   Am    Dm
One, 21 guns
C           Dm      Am          C
Throw up your arms into the sky
 
F   Am    Dm
One, 21 guns
C           Dm      Am          C
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
F   Am    Dm
One, 21 guns
C           Dm      Am      C     Dm     C
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I
