This song was the last of four tracks released on "Music as a Weapon - EP" by Flyleaf in 2006. The EP was part of the Music as a Weapon III tour, and is not being sold anymore (there were only 1000 cds made). The entire song is a standard four chord progression, with two beats of each chord in 4/4 at about 82 bpm. The original key is Am, but I tabulated this in Em for easier singing. If you want to play it in the original key, transpose the song up 5 half steps, so the chord progression is Am, F, C, and G.
