• To run away is the unproper thing;
    Face your fears, and spread your wings.
    Fight or flight, the eternal question;
    To live one's life in deception.
    Would you stay and hold your ground?
    Or run away, where escape is found.

    This is the first song I ever wrote, and I wrote some chords for guitar to play with it. The song is about a guy that has to choose between stopping the nuclear appocalypse by destroying the plane carrying the nuclear bombs (and his girlfriend), or let it occur, to save his girlfriend's life (since she is on the plane). I have the beginning figured out for the chords/riff, but I don't quite know how to write tabs online. Please comment!

    As I walk through this forest glade,

    I always recall the price we paid,
    Em (starts at ‘love’, continues for few seconds after)
    For love…

    Thousands out there lying dead,

    Because of the dangerous paths we lead,
    Em (starts at ‘love’, continues for few seconds after)
    For love… (Guitar continues)
    C Am
    I made a vital choice that day,
    C Am
    A price that the world would pay,
    Em (starts at ‘love’, continues for few seconds after)
    For love…
    C Am
    My mind tells me that it was wrong,
    C Am
    But my heart tells me to sing this song,
    Em D
    For love… FOR LOVE!
    Bm
    As the bombs began to fall from the sky,
    (bar chord-5th fret [just slide Bm down])
    I broke down and started to cry,
    Bm
    You reached over, took my hand,
    (bar chord-1st fret [just slide Bm up])
    And said…
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    It gives us the courage to hope,
    G D
    When the world goes up in smoke;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Allows us to stay strong,
    G D
    When the choice was so wrong;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Putting one another,
    G D
    Before all other;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Risking the demon’s knife,
    G D
    Just to save her life.
    (guitar goes quiet)
    Your words relit the fire inside,

    And I found, to my surprise,

    The tears stopped rolling from my eyes,
    Em (starts at ‘love’, continues for few seconds after)
    For love…(Guitar continues)
    C Am
    You gave me the courage to stay strong,
    C Am
    And that’s the reason I’m singing this song,
    Em D
    For love… FOR LOVE!

    Bm
    As the bombs began to fall from the sky,
    (bar chord-5th fret [just slide Bm down])
    I broke down and started to cry,
    Bm
    You reached over, took my hand,
    (bar chord-1st fret [just slide Bm up])
    And said…
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    It gives us the courage to hope,
    G D
    When the world goes up in smoke;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Allows us to stay strong,
    G D
    When the choice was so wrong;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Putting one another,
    G D
    Before all other;
    Em C Am
    This is the price of love,
    Em C
    Risking the demon’s knife,
    G D
    Just to save her life.

    C Am
    So many years have since passed,
    C Am
    Since that day that was humanity’s last,
    Em
    For love…
    C Am
    All because of the difficult choice I made,
    C Am
    The choice that made the world pay,
    Em
    For love…
    C Am
    If I could go back to that day,
    C Am
    My choice would still have been to stay,
    Em D Bm
    For love… FOR LOVE! YAH!

    Trying to survive,
    G D
    And keep you alive…
