Sentinel

• C#m

Verse 1:
========

C#m                       E
  Can we say that we are free, 
                 B               C#m
  our hands are bound and voices silent.
                       E
  I’m sure it's not a dream,
        B                 C#m
  I am awake, my eyes are open.
            A                 B
  I can’t accept and won’t concede 
          G#m             C#m
  in aftermath we find redemption.
      A               B
  The causes that are seized, 
      G#m              C#m
  and disguised as revolution.

Verse 2:
========
  Quell the rage that deeply seethes
  the extremes of these devotions.
  Dismantle a machine, 
  the device of their creation.
  I can’t accept and won’t concede
  that this is who we are.
  The conflict that is seized 
  and disguised as greater notions.

Chorus:
=======
         E                                 B
  To the songs that sing of glory and the brave
         C#m                               G#m
  Are we dreaming there are better days to come?
                E                          B
  When will the banners and the victory parades
       C#m                            G#m
  celebrate the day a better world is won?

  E      B       G#m              C#m
  On the day the storm has just begun
               A              B              E
  I will still hope there are better days to come.

Verse 3:
========
  In the face of what I say 
  my words would turn to anger.
  Malevolence in need
  cannot provide direction.
  I won’t accept this thought
  that this is who we are.
  Positions never change,
  losing all forward motion.

Verse 4:
========
  Hamper that which deeply seethes,
  temper your devotion.
  Dismantle the machine,
  the device of you conviction.
  Can’t accept and won’t concede
  that this is who we are.
  The conflict that is seized
  and disguised as greater notions.

Chorus:
=======
  To the songs that sing of glory and the brave
  Are we dreaming there are better days to come?
  When will the banners and the victory parades
  celebrate the day a better world is won?

  To the songs that sing of glory and the brave
  Are we dreaming there are better days to come?
  When will the banners and the victory parades
  celebrate the day a better world is won?

  On the day 
  the storm has just begun
  I will still hope
  there are better days to come.

  On the day
  the storm has just begun
  I will still hope
  there are better days to come.
