The Hammer Holds

• Dsus2

Capo 4
***this song is pretty much just a walking song***

Intro: Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
       Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  Dsus/F# A7 A7sus4 Asus7     

Verse 1:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
A shapeless piece of steel, that's all I claim to be
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
This hammer pounds to give me form, this flame, it melts my dreams
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
I glow with fire and fury, as I'm twisted like a vine
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
My final shape, my final form I'm sure I'm bound to find

Chorus:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I'll remain
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  Dsus/F# A7 A7sus4 Asus7     
And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the flames
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
And hurt a little, hurt for me my future is untold
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds

Verse 2:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
And the water, it cools me gray, and the hurt's subdued somehow
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
I have my shape, this sharpened point, what is my purpose now?
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
And the question still remains, what am I to be?
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
Perhaps some perfect piece of art displayed for all to see

Chorus:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I'll remain
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  Dsus/F# A7 A7sus4 Asus7     
And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the flames
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
And hurt a little, hurt for me my future is untold
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds

Verse 3:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
The hammer pounds again, but flames I do not feel
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
This force that drives me, helplessly, through flesh, and wood reveals
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4  A7 A7sus4 Asus7
A burn that burns much deeper, it's more than I can stand
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
The reason for my life was to take the life of a guiltless man

Chorus:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
So dream a little, dream for me in hopes that I'll remain
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  Dsus/F# A7 A7sus4 Asus7     
And cry a little, cry for me so I can bear the flames
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
And hurt a little, hurt for me my future is untold
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
But my dreams are not the issue here, for they, the hammer holds

Outro:
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  A7sus4 D5 D/A
This task before me may seem unclear
Dsus2 A(4)/C#  G6/B  A7sus  G5  Dsus4/A Dsus2
But it, my maker holds
