tune down full step

Am
ive gone through life white knuckle in the moments that left me behind
F
refusing to heed the yield i penetrate the force field in the blind
Dm
they say ill adjust and god knows that i must but im not sure how
C F
this natural selection picked me out to be
G
a dark horse running in A

C G Dm
fantasy ( flesh and bone )
F G Am F Dm F G
and im running out of time ( flesh and bone )

C G Dm F
somewhere outside that finish line i square up and break through the chains
G Am F Dm F
i head like a raging bull anointed by the blood i take the reins
G Am F Dm F
cut from the cloth of the flag that bears the name , battle born

G C Dm
don’t call me the contender now listen for the bell
G F
with my face flashing crimson from the fires of hell
G
( what are you afraid of? )

chorus :
C G Dm
and what are you made of ( flesh and bone )
F G Am F Dm
and im running out of time ( flesh and bone )
F G C G Dm
and what are you made of ( flesh and bone )
F G Am F Dm F G
and im turning on a dime ( flesh and bone )

Dm F
this could decay this could decay
Am G
like the valley below , defences are down
Dm F
stakes are high , fairytale end
Am G
staggering blow , let it be chin

this could be real , simple

C G Dm F G
Am F Dm F

chorus :
G C G Dm
and what are you made of ( flesh and bone )
F G Am F Dm
and im running out of time ( flesh and bone )
F G
what are you made of?

C G Dm F G
Am F Dm F G

( he faces forward , trading in his blindness for the world of love
his heart is raging may he rage in vain
and you always had it , but you never knew
so boots and saddles get on your feet
there’s no surrender , ’cause there’s no retreat
the bells are solid there’s loads to learn
we’re the descendants of giant men )
