G#m This vessel was to venture into new waters To find new resources to make life easier and more enjoyable F#m It was a simple mission for the crew Who were excited to be a part of this union C#m They pledged their allegiance to the captain And vowed to be there no matter what In sickness, health, and possible G#mdeath
As time passed by there was no new land to be found
As the days grew F#mshorter And the nights grew longer and colder The crew became more and more skeptical about the captain's vision OC#mriginally passionate and committed true and faithful They now began to revolt
Verse 1: Sing:
You G#mcrossed the line I was honest I never promised Eanything Just a brotherhood to stand for something C#m And everyone should take the lead Follow your Edreams If you don't try you fail
Refrain 1: Shane Speaks:
G#m As the mutiny started and the captain was overthrown and chained He Easked them why their minds had changed There's no C#mgold to be found no treasure in the ground E We won't die for this We won't die for you
Verse 2: Sing:
You've G#mlost your minds I was honest I never promised Eanything Just a brotherhood to stand for something C#m And even if they disagree Follow your G#mdreams If you don't try you fail
Interlude: E--F#--G#m- x2 Refrain 2: Shane Speaks:
E This dream is now F# A shipwreck in the sand G#m They gave up they made all their demands E The storm consumed F# fifty seven souls G#m Who died in vain his love they stole
Chorus 1:
E This unionF# a battle fought and G#mlost This union is not about the Ecause This unionF# was never about G#mlove This union This union (Repeat)
Chorus 2:
E This unionF# a battle fought and G#mlost This union is not about the Ecause This unionF# was C#m(hold) never about love
