Antebellum Lyrics & Tabs by Vienna Teng & Alex Wong
Antebellum
guitar chords lyrics
In the fall we circle through the leaves and talk about the little ones
And we smile but never say too much, the moment always vanishing
One by one the neighbor's lights come on
Our October day is almost gone
I know the borderlines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down, keep the wounded safe
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice day
In the spring we climbed the rolling hills and talked about our budding plans
And we smiled, our faces like a mirror showing us our secret sides
But then the fights, the sharp words splintering the night
How I couldn't be what you'd need, but oh how I could make you bleed
I know the borderlines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down, keep the wounded safe
I know our antebellum innocence
I know the borderlines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down, keep the wounded safe
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice
But how much would I give to have it back again?
How much did we lose to live this way?
You'll go home, I'll stay here, seasons keep on marching
I'll stay here, you'll go home with only strangers watching
I know the borderlines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down, keep the wounded safe
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice
I know the borderlines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down, keep the wounded safe
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice day
