Flight of Kings 
Tuning: Eb Tuning 
Intro: Em- D-C-Bm-Am-Bm-C-D- x2 
verse 1: 
Em      D               Bm      G 
Twenty two years have passed by  As I contemplate 
Em              D               Bm      G 
I can recall you getting me out of every scrape 
Em              D       Bm      G       EmD            Bm      G        
What comes first to my mind Was the change that I so desperately needed to make 
Pre-Chorus 
Em        G/F#  Am              C 
Day and night, frozen silent in blinding violent fear 
Em              G/F#        Am          C 
A song for my fight Comes spilling the words I so desperately needed to hear 
Chorus: 
C       Am        Em G 
Do you know this song's for you? 
C        Am       Em      G             (Intro) 
 My heart goes out to hurt you feel inside 
verse 2: same chords as verse 1 
What hurts more than just dying Is living barely alive 
After all it's easier than falling short every time 
I felt the pain and set fire To the grace that I so desperately needed to take 
(Pre-Chours) (Chorus x2) 
Bridge: 
Em                                G/F# 
I was brought up through the ashes Like a phoenix birthing wings 
Am                              C 
And I will fight for my disasters I will take the flight of kings 
Em                              G/F# 
And if your life is ever torched Or if you know the pain I sing 
(Music Cuts off) 
Then will you sing with me this Chorus 
And we will cut through people's hearts and free them  
(a C Chord plays here and you go straight into the Chorus) 
(Chorus x2) 

Who Needs Air 
Tuning: Half-step down (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) 
Intro: D G 
    D                                                
I long to taste adventure like the nature of the sea, 
             G 
Always moving, always hiding all the creatures from beneath. 
              D                                       
Singing silent songs of sadness my heart waits for its chance, 
      G 
To dance upon the ashes of my burned up little plans. 
Pre-Chorus 
        D                              G                      D                                  G 
And I stand alone before the night. My nakedness is so clear in the glow of the moonlight. 
         Bm           G          Bm           G 
Life is old, but so short. We are young, we want more. 
Chorus: 
D                 G                                      Bm 
I'm drowning, but I don't care, Because when you got what I got, what I got, what I got 
           G                    D 
Who needs air? I donâ??t need air. 
(D G) 
verse 2: 
                 D                                                G 
My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea, Like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me. 
          D                                                           G 
I donâ??t need to prove the world to you only to myself. So step back and look away as I  
dive into the swell. 
(Chorus) 
Bridge: 
Em                         F#m                 G                                   A 
Take me down to the river like a little child, Take my hand and tell me itâ??s okay to be wild. 
Em                             F#m                              G                             A                    A 
I never knew the world until I saw through your eyes, I never knew myself until I ripped off my  
disguise. 
(Broken down Chorus) 
D 
Iâ??m drowning (I have come to the realization that) 
G 
but I donâ??t care (life is more than what I have accomplished and) 
                  Bm 
Because when you got what I got what I got (life is more than the realization that)  
           G 
Who needs air? (we have accomplished nothing at all) 
(Chorus) 
               D 
You donâ??t need airâ?¦

The Coldest Heart 
Tuning: Half-step down 
verse 1: 
C#m                           G#m       A                             E         B 
A couple of years and I'm a silhouette My halo is broken now and I'm all that's left  
C#m                                     G#m          A                 

I hate to disappoint but it's the way things went  I was bound to the things I did   
E           B 
And after what was said   
F#m             A                       C#m          B 
Tie up these loose ends  These voices are calling me out  
F#m             A                       C#m                 B 
I've got the solution  You can feed me to something  That is leaving this doubt  

Chorus: 
F#m     A        C#m                      A 
Whoa, I'm losing hope There's a hole in my heart  That's been cut out of stone  
F#m     A               C#m                     A                       F#m             A 
Whoa, cold comes cold goes Could you fill this hole?  Cause I can't do it alone  

Interlude: C#m C#m C#m C#m 
Verse2: 
C#m                               G#m           A           E                   B 
A couple of tears and I'm a broken mess The sadness has taken me far too deep in regret  
C#m                             G#m             A                
So sing me a song about something good  My heart's on the thrashing floor  
        E               B 
And I've done every single thing I could  
F#m             A               C#m                B 
I use to believe in  Some kind of feelin'  That could change everything I thought I knew  
F#m             A               C#m                     B 
But that door is closed and My heart feels like it's frozen If you hear me I can feel you  

(Chorus)Â  

Bridge:  
C#m             B                   F#m 
The coldest heart can be brought to life  
                A 
When it's thrown into the fire of goodbyes      x4 

(Chorus 2x)Â  
(C#m B F#m A) 
I've got the coldest heart (4x)Â

I had months to write a song That captured who you are

But I fear I have done you wrong Because I've failed you so far

There's a song outside my window And it plays to your tune 
Gm              Dm            Bb                C 
And there's a life inside this pencil And it lives for what is true 
Gm         Dm              Bb           C  
Cause I am lost for words, the cost for her Was way to much to bear

My stomach's left in a knot My pride is left here to rot 
Cm 
It's been a while since I've felt this restless

By definition it's depressing but I'm alright 
Ab                                 Fm                               Ab

verse 1: 
Am                  F           G 
It couldn't be more far from the truth 
Dm              Am      F            G          Dm 
If you could do to me the things you would do 
                Am                             F 
And I know you're on to me I'm watching you wanting me 
                   G                         Dm         (Lead) 
You hung down the rebels and punish them wrongfully You came with fire and weapons to kill 
Chorus: 
Am           F          Dm             F                    
A warrior poet once said You're not dead yet  
Am  F                Dm    F 
so live like you could be 
Am           F          Dm      F               Am      F 
A warrior poet said Have no regrets when you're old 
Dm         Am                   (Lead)           
Have no regrets when you're old 

verse 2: 
Am      F             G         Dm

Am      F       G       Dm                  Am          F               G 
But my ultimate enemy So back off, you're not what I would prefer to see 
Dm                   Am          F              G 
When my body rots I still won't give you the courtesy 
                 (Lead) 
You came with fire for the last time 
(Chorus) 
Bridge:  (F Bb x2) 
F 
When your body wants to run  
        Bb                              F 
But your heart knows you're better than that 
Bb                                                               Bb                              
The blood you spilled on battlefields I promise you will not go unspent 
              C         Dm              F                                        
Neither will I leave you stranded The promise rings as our battle cry 
Bb              C               Dm          F 
You're never alone regardless of doubt But faith comes so easy to some 
Bb          C     Dm            F               Bb      C                 Dm   F           Am  F  
Dm F 
Better luck next time, better luck next time  Watch as the teargas burns my eyes It burns my eyes

The Bitter Uprising 
Tuning: Standard 
verse 1: 
Bb/E                                            F                
If you listen to the sound of the hope  In the children's voices asking questions 
Bb                 C               Gm 
You'll know how blindness is a blessing  
Bb/E                                    F 
But I know your type, you're always right, your tongue controls your mind 
Bb      C               Gm 
But I guess life's the lesson 

Pre-Chorus 
Bb                           Dm 
If they said 40 years I would die before 
                         CÂ  
I let them take the love that I have paid for with my tears 
Bb                            Dm 
And now the time has come to cut our tongues out 
                        C 
And commit ourselves as you did in your memory  

Chorus: 
F                                       Gm 
We'll tear down the walls and let them know  
                                              Dm 
We could have it all, we could have some hope 
             C                   Bb     C (Some weird lick) 
This city could be ours by nightfall 

verse 2: 
Bb                                      F 
Do you hear the war drums beating? Are you truly happy doing nothing, darling? 
Bb              C       Gm       
      I need to find the center 
Bb                                                        F 
Because love is something right, it's not cooked up overnight In sticky situations you try 
Bb              C       Gm 
    But less is more forever (Pre-Chorus) (Chorus x2) 
Bridge: 
Dm               C              Bb 
The minute I was born, you stole my heart 
The minute I was born, you stole my heart 
Dm              B                Gm 
The minute I was born, you stole my heart 
Dm              B                       A7 
The minute I was born, the minute I was born 

(Chorus x2 palm mute the first time through then play it normally) 
(End  on F)

Tuning: Eb 
Intro: Em, Em, C, C x2 
verse 1: 
Em                           
Lost sense (Of) direction , nobody knows my name, 
C                       Am 
Confidence, correction donâ??t know how to play that game 
Em       
Straight line is quicker. Straight line would make me fast 
C                                        Am 
Iâ??ve burned my nose enough to know straight lines never last 
Pre-Chorus 
Em                 Em    C                     C  Em                   C 
Swallow your soul.      drink from this life.   As you choke on your pride 
Chorus: 
Em               C 
             We all look elsewhere x2 
(Interlude) 
verse 2: same chords as verse 1 
Itâ??s safer inside doors, nobody has to flee 
Broken vessel passed the rocks and out to sea 
Waiting, wanting mad with purpose 
Now we come to talk to one who knows the answer to how  
(Pre-Chorus)  
Chorus 2: 
D                  Em                      G            D       C       Em       D 
Donâ??t waste your time if youâ??ve got it, the tides are turning now, you are not alone 
(D)                  Em                         G       D   C       Em      D        
They gave you their worst and you bought it. The lie has been exposed. You are not alone 
Bridge: 
Em 
Winter that comes quick in early September 
D 
The rain clouds that washed me are what I remember 
C 
The stones that I threw piled high like a mountain 
Am                          D 
Which I had to climb before I reached the fountain 
    Em          D                       Bm                              C 
If life is a riddle then riddle me this: the blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips 
(Em D D C) 
Donâ??t, donâ??t waste your time ,  donâ??t, donâ??t waste your time. Donâ??t waste your time  
(Chorus 2) 
(Intro) 
(End on Em)

Intro: 
C#m A2 E B 
verse 1: 
C#m                          A2 (Repeat these chords) 
    A summer drive away from dying 
    a broken heart nothing to lose. 
    I know it hurts so bad just trying 
    to please the ones you hate to love. 
      F#m                   A2                                   C#m    B 
And I wrote this note about someone I used to know 
       F#m          A2 
so I'd remember how life can be so short  when your left alone to wonder 
                                   `                       E 
how it is someone opens and shuts the door. 
Chorus: 
            E/Eb          A2 
I know your cold but come home.

verse 2: 
C#m                             A2 (Repeat these chords) 
    You set your mind on cruise control 
    knuckles grip the wheel in fear to let it go. 
F#m                   A2 
Love is empty,love is cruel, 
                           C#m 
love it blindly breaks the rules. 
                          B 
How could you have been a fool? 
                            F#m 
It's something all of us go through. 
                                 A2 
You choke back tears and swallow lies 
                                      C#m 
but those wiper blades won't fix your eyes, 
                B                                    E 
count on having clouded vision for at least a little while. (Chorus) 
Chorus 2: 
                  E/Eb          A2 
And I know you're cold but come home. 
             C#m                        B             A2 
Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone 
   C#m     A2      E     B 
We wont forget the past. 
   C#m     A2      E     B 
We wont forget the past. (And I know you're cold) 

E                                         A2 
   Say all the answers and I will let you go 
I wont look back 
                C#m 
and I wont look back. 
            B 
Say all the answers 
                   A2 
and I will let you go. 
I will let you go.

Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone 
and I will let you go

any other tabs or  
corrections then put it in the comments!
