Carry The Banner Chords & Lyrics by The Flatliners
Carry The Banner
guitar chords lyrics
This is acutally the acoustic version off of Alan Crosses Explore Music.
I think the electric version just starts with the chorus then goes into the intro.
Listen to the song for chord changes and timing because sometimes chords are not
in the exact spots.
ENJOY!

VERSE
Em
This morning crawls
C C* Em
My motivation's been snowed in
C C* Em G
And I finally caught that glimpse of the edge I've been avoiding
C C* Em G C
So try your best to keep these bullets from my chest
C Em G
As I wipe the blood out from your sweat,
G
Talking seems useless, doesn't it?
CHORUS
G C
Live through, live strong
Em G
Carry on and on and on
C Em
No more false-start life at traffic lights
BRIDGE
G Em
G Em
VERSE
C Em G Em
Like trying to shake a dream you might not quite remember completely
C Am
We're killing ourselves to live
G G G* G G G* G G G* G G G*
Inhale, exhale unlike everybody
C Am
We've just been bleeding
Em G
Feel the cold swell in your throat
C Am
When this shit is getting old
CHORUS (same as before but twice)
Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life at traffic lights
No
Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life
VERSE
Am C G
Don't disagree that what we've come to ain't so pretty
Am C G G G* G G G* G G G* G G G*
And all I can think is we're begging for change in our own way
Bm C G C
Cry knowing I'm the one who let you down when leaving town
Bm C G G G* G G G* G G G* G G G** G
A moment of clarity
G G G* G G G* G G G* G G G* Em Em Em* Em
Don't let it tear out your throat
Em G G G* G G G* G G G* G G G** G
After chasing lines all fucking night
G G G* G G G* G G G*
And the wrongs you shouldn't write about
Em C
I speak from experience of all of the fear in us

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life at traffic lights
No

No more false-start life
