Promises And Pills (feat. Alfred The Mc)

Verso 1:
   Gm                Cm
In war, combat is so heavily prepared for
   Gm
Returning home is something no one is really there for
   Gm                          Cm
Half the team is gone, and the half that makes it home
     Dm
They gotta deal with the terrorism, in their skull
              Gm                           Cm
But there's a cure the government likes to hit them with
            Gm
Prescribing promises and pills
        Cm                 Gm
But the side effects is no sleep, no peace
        F                             Gm
Looking for reasons for living as the war moves on
America. The System

      Gm            Cm        Gm
Reintegrate me, you made me a killer
               Gm           Cm              Dm
Like you could trade me for everything I've lost
                 Gm      Cm
And look how you made me make me
Gm             Cm            Gm
Think about me taking my own life
         F                Gm
When I remember what went down

        Cm               F              Dm              Gm
And you say that I'm the reason for the freedom of this land
     Cm                 F                   Dm          Gm
So I land in their back yard, I've got your rifle in my hand, and
Cm              F                   Dm              Gm
They defend themselves, you know of course I do the same, so
Cm                              Dm
We go kill each other while you go about your day

(Refrão)

    Cm               F                Dm           Gm
And I don't sleep at night and I will never be the same
       Cm           F               Dm              Gm
And my wife is terrified by these details I can't explain
       Cm              F                Dm                   Gm
And my soul is beat to shit and half my friends are dead and gone.
              Cm                                 Dm
For all these fucking games you play, we pay the price with our own blood

(Refrão)

Verso 2:
    Gm                          Cm
Put a warrior in hell, now he's finally back
     Gm
With images in his brain of every damn attack
      Gm                        Cm
Every bomb, every friend that's never coming home
      Dm
Every innocent life taken, for reasons unknown
         Gm                              Cm
Then we abandon them, the same ones that did all the killing
      Gm                                 Cm
We no longer deal with them, just their spouses and children
        Gm                          F
And the memories in their head from every damn mission
        Gm
And the war moves on
America. The System
