                     WAR ON A FEELING - Hostage Calm

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Couldn't exactly figure out the bridge with the key change, I'm not sure what they're 

doing there, but I put down what I play. Rest of it should be pretty accurate, this is my 

favorite HC song, enjoy.



Tuning: Half Step Down







B                                                      E

Refused to find the stars aligned in skies ripe for misleading;

                B           F#

Reserve them my contempt.

    B                                                 E

And worlds behind their obscured lights, confidence depleted

   C#m                 E         B

In hopes that you wont find us retreating.





B                                                      E

The more I stalled, suburban sprawl kept creeping ever closer,

    C#m                 B           F#

Forewarned though I had been.

  B                                                 E

A familys ware, so unprepared to cope with their confinement.

   C#m        E              F#                  E

It reminded me of the times, when I sit down and cry,

                                   B

And hope you find someone who wont hurt you

   G#m            E

As much as I know I do.





B                                                         E

Twenty-five years down the line, means a hundred changing seasons:

       C#m                  E

Do you fear what might well pass?



F#                                          E

It subsides, like how the better part of me dies.

                                   B

Im missing what the days have been stealing,

        G#m       C#m

Staring up at the ceiling,

F#     G#m      E             B

Waging war on a feeling.





B                                       E

Half-asleep machinery, the citys always driving;

                B        F#

Shouldnt you be too?

B                                                 E

Motown, dont it hurt to know your best days are behind you?

         C#m                E

But that midnight oil still burns.





F#                                          E

It subsides, like how the better part of me dies.

                                   B

Im missing what the days have been stealing,

        G#m       C#m

Staring up at the ceiling,

F#     G#m      E             B

Waging war on a feeling.





F                G                   Dm

Share an evening treat on a roadside near

                         E

I go to watch things disappear.

            Dm             F                    Am

And we find time to wonder why things wont feel right.

           E    F# 

(Without escape    the hostage waits)





B                                                               E

With drawn out wars on several fronts, you might find one worth winning.

       C#m                  E

Do you fear what might well pass?



F#                                          E

It subsides, like how the better part of me dies.

                                   B

Im missing what the days have been stealing,

        G#m       C#m

Staring up at the ceiling.

F#     G#m      E

Waging war on a feeling.

F#     G#m      E

Waging war on a feeling.

F#     G#m      E

Waging war on a feeling.
