Rise Against - Hairline fracture

^G#mA sinking ship, an ^Bawkward kiss, A ^Echance to set things ^F#straight. The ^G#mkind of hurt that ^Bburns and burns, ^ELike fires we ^F#can't contain.

We ^G#mhole up in a ^Bshelter made of ^Ebones and ice and ^F#there we'll wait, To ^G#mstart again ^Bwith steady hands, ^EThis time no^F#thing gets in our ^C#mway, But as we ^Epeer a little closer what ^F#do we see?

^C#m A crack in the ^G#msurface, ^F# A flaw in the ^Eplan ^{B F#} (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand) A cadence imper^G#mfect ^F# Like a building con^Edemned ^{B C#m} (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)

^G#mA promise kept, the^B dirt unswept, A ^Epoorly worn dis^F#guise. ^G#mA child unloved that ^Bthen grows up, ^ETo love what ^F#we despise.

We're ^G#mbroken but still ^Bbreathing, we are ^Ewounded but we are ^F#healing. We ^G#mpick up right where we^B left off, ^EBreathe on t^F#he ashes that ^C#mremain, So that these ^Ecoals may become fire, to guide our ^F#way.

^C#m A crack in the ^G#msurface, ^F# A flaw in the ^Eplan ^{B F#} (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand) A cadence imper^G#mfect ^F# Like a building con^Edemned ^{B C#m E} (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)

^G#mI walk on wounds that seldom ^Eprove to slow me down, ^G#mI laugh this constant pain a^Eway, so you can't tell, ^F#But there it lies under the smiles, ^EIt drains me mile after mile, ^F#But seldom proves to slow me^E down, ^G#mHere I go^F#, ^{E G#m}Here I go^F#, ^{E G#m}Here I go^F#. ^E

Should we just ^F#hold on^E, To what re^F#mains of^E, What we t^F#hought was ^Elost.

^E A crack in the ^G#msurface, ^F# A flaw in the ^Eplan ^{B F#} (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand) A cadence imper^G#mfect ^F# Like a building con^Edemned ^{B F#} (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?) A crack in the s^G#murface, ^F# A crack in the ^Esurface.
