Armor and Sword Rush
Verse 1:
The [Em]snakes and arrows a [C]child is heir to
[Em]Are enough [C]to leave [G/B]a thous[Em]and cuts[C] [Em] [C] [G/B]
We [Em]build our defenses, [C]a place of safet[Em]y
And leave the [C]darker [G/B]places [Em]unexplored[C]
[E5] [G5] [F5] [A5] [E5] [G5] [F5] [A5]
Pre-chorus:
Some[E5]times the [G5]fortress is[F5] too [A5]strong or the [E5]love is too[G5] weak[F5] [A5]
What [E5]should have [G5]been our [F5]armor be[A5]comes a sharp[E5] and [G5]angry sword[F5] [A5]
Chorus:
[C] [Em] [D] [D]
Our [C]better natures seek[Em] elevation
[D] A refuge for the [C]coming night
No one gets to their heaven without a fight[D]
No one
[Em] [C]
Verse 2:
We hold beliefs as a consolation
A way to take us out of ourselves
Meditation or medication
A comfort or a promised reward
[E5] [G5] [F5] [A5]
Pre-chorus:
Sometimes the spirit is too strong or the flesh is too weak
Sometimes the need is just too great for the solace we seek
The suit of shining armor becomes a keen and bloody sword
Chorus:
[C]No one gets to their he[Em]aven without a [D]fight
A [C]refuge for the co[Em]ming night, a [D]future of [C]eternal light
No one gets to their hea[Em]ven without a [D]fight
No one

[C5] [Eb5] [B5] [Ab]
Bridge:
Con[C5]fused alarms of struggl[Eb5]e and flight, [B5]blood is drained of co[Ab5]lor
[C5]By the flashes of artill[Eb5]ery light, [E5]no one gets to their hea[Ab]ven without a figh[C5]t[3b5]
The [B5]battle flags are flown[Ab5] at the feet of a [C5]god unknown[3b5]
[E5]No one gets to their [Ab]heaven, heaven
Guitar Solo:

[E5] [G5] [F5] [A5] [E5] [G5] [F5] [A5]
Pre-chorus:
Sometimes the damage is too great or the will is too weak
What should have been our armor becomes a sharp and burning sword
Chorus:
No one gets to their heaven without a fight
A refuge for the coming night, a future of eternal light
No one gets to their heaven without a fight
No one
[C] [Em] [D] [C]
No one gets to their [Em]heaven without a [D]fight
Outro:
[Em] [C] [G/B] [Em(9)]
