Tuning: Capo 2

Intro Riff:

         E        F#m
When the cavalry clears
        G#m          F#m
And the limbs of our peers
    G#m            F#m           Esus4
Lay around us like sticks in the mud
      E           F#m
We'll say to ourselves,
             G#m            F#m
"Where's the heaven in this hell?
           G#m    F#m         Esus4
We're on a ladder without any rungs"
         Am                        E
With the ash of our friends in our lungs

(Repeat intro riff, end on Esus4

       E                F#m
That's enough about the war
          G#m  F#m
How's my dear Eleanor?
         G#m             F#m        Esus4
Have you heard back from William or Kate?
        E            F#m
Are you getting your shakes
             G#m         F#m
From lack of sleep as of late?
       G#m           F#m      Esus4
And my breath always reeks of escape
        Am                       E      E
I'll be home soon, and hopefully safe


       A5           F#5          G#5
If you love me, you won't make a scene
       A5           F#5          G#5
When I get home, please just leave me be
       A5           F#5         G#5
If you love me, then don't make a scene
       A5           F#5            E5
When I get home, please just leave me be


Piano solo:
A5, F#5, G#5 x3, end on E

       E            F#m
Twenty years to the day
             G#m             F#m
The tavern's closed and some say
          G#m           F#m         Esus4
They only saved us from missing our lives
       E         F#m
He was buried away to
     G#m           F#m
The ground and the blame
     G#m     F#m         Esus4
That Eleanor kept stored away
        Am                      E
And his breath always reeked of escape


I am pretty confident about the accuracy of this tab, there are a few fills and muted 
in various places, but they generally follow the tabbed out sections.
