Verse 
D 
I memorize, I walk in line 
         G                             D 
carry my sacrifice for the sake of the millions 
A                                 G 
All night you be the light on the water 
                         B 
You be the pride and the sorrow 
                       E 
Shower your love to me there 
 
D 
Summer died before the rain 
      G                      D 
Unify every soul together be lonely 
A                        G 
Ride on follow me to the sunrise 
                          B 
Save me the world that is broken 
                       E 
Nothing but love to be there 
 
 
D 
Soldiers, father and son 
      Bb 
We're soldiers, nowhere to run 
   Bb 
We fight or we die 
                C      Bb 
For what are we livin' for? 
Bb 
Boys never cry 
Dm 
Soldiers, mother and child 
      Bb 
We're soldiers ,the meek and the mild 
   Bb                  D 
We stand or we fall 
 
Verse 
D  
Never mind, dry your eyes 
                G                 D 
You'll never be far away, forever beside me  
A                        G 
Hold out, I will be your tomorrow 
                        B  
I will walk through the fire 
                       E  
Nothing but love to be there 
 
 
D            G     
I'm a little misunderstood  
G                                         
living all the daydreams and nightmares  
D 
don't do me no good 
                        G 
I'm a little bit on the moon 
 G                         
But when the word is - you love me 
                 D        
No moment is too soon 
A                                   G  
All night give me the light on the water 
                          B   
Give me the pride and the sorrow 
                        E   
Showing your love to me there

For what are we livin' for?
