verse 1 
G                                                  Em 
Cardinal crashed into my window, I think he might die 
                                             C 
I'll plan him a funeral, I'll read his last rites 
                                                 D 
'Cause I know what he saw in that reflection of light 

On the glass was a better life 

verse 2 
G 
Staring at a hole in your chest 
                           Em 
That's been dug there for decades 

American broken promises 
C 
Caught between the lies you've been fed 
                     D 
And a war with your bloodstream 
                                           G    Em   C 
I should have been there when you needed a friend 
      D          G  Em  C   D        G  Em  C 
I was off on my own a---gai-n 
D                   G  Em  C 
Selfish and stupid 

           G 
So if you call me back or let me in 
             Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 
            G 
I know the devil you've been fighting with 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again
 

verse 3 
G 
I had that nightmare again 
                  Em 
You're seven and helpless, angry as hell 
                        C 
And you balled up your fists but I laughed at your swings 
                    D 
And I beat you half-conscious 
                                       G   Em  C 
I know that I failed you, woke up in a sweat 
D             G     Em  C  D 
I want those years back 

           G 
So if you call me back or let me in 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 
            G 
I know the devil you've been fighting with 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 

Bridge 
G                Em 
We're no saviors if we can't save our brothers 
G                Em 
We're no saviors if we can't save our brothers 

           G 
So if you call me back or let me in 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 
            G 
I know the devil you've been fighting with 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 

           G 
So if you call me back or let me in 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 
            G 
I know the devil you've been fighting with 
              Em 
I swear I'll never let you down again 
      C             D     G 
I'll never let you down again
