Behind Closed Doors Rise Against
Behind Closed Doors by Rise Against
It sounds best with Capo 1 and Capo 2
[Em]Chairs thrown and tables topple[D]d,
[C]Hands armed with broken bottles[G],
[A]Standing no chance to win but[D],
[C]We're not running, [D]We're not running,
Em D C G A D C D x1
[Em]There's a point I think we're missin[D]g,
[C]It's in the air we raise our fists in[G],
[A]In the smiles we cast each othe[D]r,
[C]My sister,[D] my brother,
[Em]About the time we gave up hopin[D]g,
[C]We never find these locks still open[G],
[A]Stumbling on stones unturne[D]d,
[C]The hurt we feel, [D]we all have earned[Em], [D]
[C]The [G]lines we c[A]ross in search of change,
[D]But [C]all they see is tre[D]ason,[Em]
Chorus:
[D] A[C]lthough we ha[D]ve no obli[Em]gation to [G]stay alive, [C]
On broken [D]backs we beg for [Em]mercy, we w[G]ill survive[C],
Breakout,[D] I won't be [Em]left here,
Behind closed [C]doors, [D] [Em]
[Em]Bonfires burn like beacon[D]s,
[C]Guiding the lost and weakene[G]d,
[A]Flames dance on crashing wave[D]s,
[C]Guiding ships who've gone astra[D]y,
[Em]Time out, let's stop to [D]think this [C]through,
We've all got [G]better things to d[A]o,
Than talk in [D]circles, run in [C]place,
Answers [D]inches from our [Em]face,
(Chorus)
C x3 D x3 C x3 D x3 Em D Em D
C x3 D x3
Black eyes, broken fingers,
C x3 D x3 Em
Blood drips and I let it run,
Down my lips [D] in[Em]to my swollen gums[D],
C x3 D x3
When hope is nonexistent,
C x3 D x3 Em
Our instincts all scream "Run!"
We never [D] t[Em]urn our backs or [D]even bite our tongues, [C]
(Chorus)
[D] A[C]lthough we ha[D]ve no obli[Em]gation to [G]stay alive, [C]
On broken [D]backs we beg for [Em]mercy, we w[G]ill survive[C],
Breakout,[D] I won't be [Em]left here,
Behind closed [C]doors, [D] [Em]
