Theocracy - Theocracy

At the c^Ebenter of my ^Cmheart there sits a t^Abhrone That the ^Ebrightful occupant's not always ^Bbfree to call His own Fo^Ebr how can I give the ^CmKing His place of ^Abworth above all else When I ^Ebspend my time striving To place the ^Bbcrown upon myself?

^D(battle cry, to engage ^Dfor the war, set the stage) ^DAnd armies march and kings arise

^Am(for the choice, the time has come ^Ammine or thy will be done?) ^AmAnd the pain reflects in holy eyes

^G#m(for the will to obey ^G#mfor the night to the day) ^G#mAnd the seasons change and rulers die

^B(not of flesh, not of men ^Bwage the war deep within) ^BOn and on it rages undenied

I ^Emtake my crown and ^Ccast it down ^AmCastles burning ^BCastles burning ^EmLearn to grow ^CGrow to be ^AmA flesh and blood ^DTheocracy ^EmTo take the loss and ^Cbear the bross ^AmRaise the kingdom ^BRaise the kingdom ^ABurn away ^Amall I've been To ^Cresurrect ^AmTheocracy within

And the ^Ebwould-be rulers of my ^Cmheart That I place upon the ^Abthrone Each ^Eblead the kingdom of my life to ruin ^Bb To ^Cmbring every thought into submission To ^Abtear the idols down Is to ^Ebbreak the chains, to rearrange, To give the ^Bbking his crown
