Still Echoes

[Intro]
D5

[Verse 1]
D5
Thousand heads cut clean across their necks
right down the hall from me
The reich’s relentless blade, thirsty and shining red
still echoes of their screams

[Bridge]
D5
This is a tarnished heirloom, passed down through iron fists
A shameful house of doom, a legacy of collapse
Built on a painful truth

[Chorus]
D5 E5 Bb5 G5 A5
A thousand years of failure, a thousand years they bled.
D5 E5 Bb5
To the bear, the blitzkrieg, and the holy father.
G5 A5 D5
They just bowed their heads

[Verse 2]
D5
They meekly did their time
Counting the days while harnessed to their rusty shackles
Forever occupied, folded the crimson star,
The rabbits turned to jackals,

[Bridge]
There’s still echoes of their screams

[Verse 3]
D5
This is a tarnished heirloom, passed down through iron fists
A shameful house of doom, a legacy of collapse
Built on a painful truth

[Chorus]
D5 E5 Bb5 G5 A5
A thousand years of failure, a thousand years they bled.
D5 E5 Bb5
To the bear, the blitzkrieg, and the holy father.
G5 A5 D5 D5
They just bowed their heads

[Verse 4]
Soviet hangover eastern bloc.
And dirty money still flows through locks.
A killing ground of rebels, black marketeers
Restrained, but there’s no resistence here.
Southeast Asia in a Euro cellblock.
Saigon’s children conceal what they’ve got
The opium trail runs west through here
They’re selling disease to erase all your fears

[Interlude]
still echoes of their screams,
still echoes of their screams

[Chorus]
D5 E5 Bb5 G5 A5
A thousand years of failure, a thousand years they bled.
D5 E5 Bb5
To the bear, the blitzkrieg, and the holy father.
G5 A5
They just bowed their heads

[Solo]
D5 E5 Bb5 G5 A5 D5 E5 Bb5 G5 A5
I won’t bow my head

[Outro]
D5
