House Of The God Of War

• C#m

Another from the new Ghost Mice/Ramshackle Glory Split Album (2013)
All of the chords are barre chords again.



        C#m                          A               G#
Okay I might be full of hatred but I ain't no god of war
     C#m                         A           G#
I will pack my bags when I can't take it anymore
        A                      G#
Let them come let their towers rise
       A                           G#
Let them choke our streets let them block out our skies

    C#m     G#     A       E
I will be so far away, I'll go
  C#m    G#       A       E
Looking for some greener home
 C#m    G#      A         E
Dig a deep dark dreadful hole
  A                   G#
And throw my memories away
  A                    G#
And never will I ever come to visit their

C#m  B  A  G#
C#m  B  A  G#
C#m  B  A  G#

 C#m                            A             G#
I was the young adventurer that found a secret land
 C#m                      A         G#
I made a map of it on the back of my hand
       A                           G#
And the days were long and made of gold
     A                   G#
The nights held secrets newer to be told

      C#m         B        A         E
Now the sun doesn't rise as high these days
    C#m       B       A      E
And they burn witches at the stake
   C#m       B         A       E
And when the last of the magic fades
     A               G#
I will go, I will go again
    A                            G#
I'll find another home or I will die trying

   C#m    B         A    C#m
And maybe it's just me I know
 C#m   B     A      C#m
Maybe I just got too old
 C#m  B    A       C#m
Maybe I refused to grow
        A                    G#
But the ghosts here can't be wrong
     A                       G#
They hear my laments and they always sing along

 C#m        G#      A
Things have got much worse
 C#m       G#      A
Greed's a gruesome curse
 C#m       G#      A
It's covering the earth

        G#             A
You can lock yourself inside
         G#                A
Or you can hide yourself in lies
   G#                 A
Or forget what came before
    C#m    G#       A            G#      C#m
Or start saying your prayer to the god of war!
