Sailing Upwind

Sailing Upwind, music and lyrics by Captain_Trips (my pen name, an hommage to Jerry Garcia)
(chorus)
all i can say is attack everyday

and pray in the end to be free again

time signature is 4/4 strum pattern is (D U) (D U) (D U) (D ) (D U) (D U) (D U) (D )


darkness has become light
spreadin plague, steel filled hearts
cycle runs through in command
wouldnt dare upset the man

only a few stand against this
but they dont know what to fight against
everyone who may shine through brave
find only Judas digging their grave

(chorus)

up on the hill lumber shall fall
crosses will mark decline of an age
bravely marching in the light of bataan
even through pain they trudge on and on


the fight cant be won but thats not the point
the valiant must stand or all else will crumble
greater have fallen, lesser succeed
we must combat those with the greed

(chorus)

the game has always and will still remain
new rules to come, old ones that`ve passed
use the stars to mold your own cast
we all hold the key, the link to our past

gone unchecked the future is dim
and you cannot rely on he, him, or I
everyday fought is one worth living for
a fight thats rewarding down to the core

(chorus)
