Verse 1
F
Here they roll in like a storm on the waves
F
Shots fired and nobody's safe
         Am
We're in trouble
C               F
No, no, no, not yet
F
Gripping the seams, but the dreams slip away
F                                        Am
Onboard lying warm in their graves under rubble
C               F
No, no, no, not yet


Pre-Chorus
      Gm                C7
Baby, we can't win this war, no
         Gm             C
But from here until the door


Chorus
F                   Am
Ceasefire, I call a ceasefire
              Gm
My love, your long day is
C
Over now, over now
                 F                        Am
You've been that lost voice in the choir too long
         Gm
I call a ceasefire
     C
It's over now, over now


Verse 2
F
You had a vision of life in your mind
F                                                    Am
But this is a mess and the words never rhymed like a poem
C               F
No, no, no, not yet
       F
You're taking the questions and toeing the line
    F
Are you coming or going or wasting your time?
           Am
You should know it
C               F
No, no, no, not yet

Pre-Chorus
      Gm                C7
Maybe we won't win this war
         Gm             C
But from here until the door


Chorus

      F
Yeah, ceasefire
         Am
I call a ceasefire
              Gm
My love, your long day is
C
Over now, over now
                 F                        Am
You've been that lost voice in the choir too long
         Gm
I call a ceasefire
C
Ceasefire


Bridge
Gm
Come on, come on, come on
          C
It's over now, hey, yeah
Gm
Come on, come on, come on
          C7
It's over now
Gm
Come on, come on, come on (Ceasefire)
          C
It's over now, hey, yeah (Ceasefire)
Gm
Come on, come on, come on
          C7
It's over now


Chorus
         F
I call a ceasefire
         Am
I call a ceasefire
              Gm
My love, your long day is
C
Over now, over now
                 F                        Am
You've been that lost voice in the choir too long
         Gm
I call a ceasefire
C            F
Ceasefire
