Between The Lines Tab

I see the fire through the trees
                               
Hear the hollers through the breeze
                                      
Drowning out the season like there’s none
                                  
Hold the blue steel in my hands
                          
Moving my feet over land 
                                  
While I’m thanking God I’ve got a gun
                             
Nothing like a war at hand 
                           
To turn a boy into a man
                              
Learnin bout surviving on the run
                               
Dodging whistles in the dark
                           
Walkin soft and hiding sparks
                             
Prayin bullets find another home
-
                                    
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                   
Carry on, carry strong, keep surviving keeping on.
                                    
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                                          
What a rush oh what a ride either way I fall between the lines.
-
                      
I was born with a choice
                       
fight for freedom or fight the tours
                               
either way the fighting never ends
                          
stuck in mud in no mans land
                           
or resting easy in the sands
                                
smelling that great ocean in the wind
-
                                    
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                    
Carry on, carry strong, keep surviving keeping on.
                                    
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                                         
What a rush oh what a ride either way I fall between the lines.
-
                              
Oh please mama here my distant call
                              
This may be my last stand after all
-
                              
So if the night comes and I fall
                         
somewhere in the dark I ask 
                               
know for greater good I gave my all
                          
give the ones I know my love
                              
tell them I was worth the blood
                                 
that I shed on grounds far from home
-
                                    
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                     
Carry on, carry strong, keep surviving keeping on.
                                      
Oh here we go, another stand you know.
                                                          
What a rush oh what a ride either way I fall between the lines.
