A Better Life Chords & Lyrics - Dream Theater

[VERSE]
As [Em]fearless leader of the [Am]Ravensk[C]ill Militia [D]
[Em]The blood of warriors [Am]flows throughout my [D]veins
[Em]My brother's gift remains [C]my secret ammunition [Bm]
[Em]It is our hope, our pride, a [D]catalyst for change

[CHORUS]
Still the [Am]fires of revol[G]ution [F#m]burn with[D]in my eyes
On [Am]this perilous road to [G]freedom, he's our o[D]ne and only guide

[VERSE]
[Em]For many years, I've seen our [C]people starve and suffer
[Em]How many more will [D]die [Am]before we stand [D]and fight?
[Em]They ask me Arhys, could [Am]things be [C]any tougher? [Bm]
[Em]The answer's no [D]surprise, yes, you bet your life

[VERSE]
[Am]Now the fires of re[G]volution won't [F#m]burn forever [D]more
I [Am]see liberty in ou[C]r future, and i[D]t's one we're fighting for

[VERSE]
[Em]We all l[D]ong for a [C]better [Bm]life
[Em]Like a [F#m]dream that can't [C]be deni[D]ed
[Am]This is the [G]moment, [C]now is the [D]time
[Bm]Freedom if we live or if we die

[OUTRO]
[Em]I shall [Bm]give [G]him a [Em]better [D]life
[Em]I swore this [Bm]vow to my [C]dying [D]wife [Bm]
[Am]Sure, she would [Em]not survi[D]ve
[Am]Peaceful[F]ly she s[Em]lipped away
The [F#m]meaning in my [Am]life
Was [F]born that day [Am]
And [Bm]so I [G]found the strength to carry [C]on with [Am]this crusade[Bb]
It is my [Em]fate

[Final
[Am]Evangel[F]ine, you [Am]lived a life of [F]misery and [Am]pain
[Am]Evangel[F]ine, I'll [G]never let your [F]memory die in [C]vain
[C]Evangel[G]ine, my [F]heavy heart still [Am]bleeds
[F]I dedicate my l[C]ife to set you f[Em]ree[F#m] [G] [Bm]
And [F]I will carry [G]on to plant the s[Am]eeds [F#m]
[Bb]I promise [C]in the name of our new s[D]on
[Bb]This battle won't be o[Am]ver until [D]it's won
