Lyrics:
My knuckles were bruised like violets
Sucker punching walls
Cursed you as I sleep talked
Spineless in my tomb of silence
Tore your banners down
Took the battle underground
And maybe it was egos swinging
Maybe it was her
Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur
All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
Tears on the letter, I vowed
Not to cry anymore
If we survived the Great War
You drew up some good faith treaties
I drew curtains closed
Drank my poison all alone
You said I have to trust more freely
But diesel is desire
You were playing with fire
And maybe it's the past that's talking
Screaming from the crypt
Telling me to punish you for things you never did
So I justified it
All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the bombs were closer
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
The burning embers, I vowed
Not to fight anymore
If we survived the Great War
Uh-huh, uh-huh
It turned into something bigger
Somewhere in the haze
Got a sense I'd been betrayed
Your finger on my hairpin triggers
Soldier down on that icy ground
Looked up at me with honor and truth
Broken and blue
So I called off the troops
That was the night I nearly lost you
I really thought I'd lost you
We can plant a memory garden
Say a solemn prayer
Place a poppy in my hair
There's no morning glory
It was war, it wasn't fair
And we will never go back to that
Bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the worst was over
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
We're burned for better, I vowed
I would always be yours
'Cause we survived the Great War
Uh-huh, uh-huh
I will always be yours
'Cause we survived the Great War
Uh-huh
I vowed I will always be yours

❤❤❤Danke für. Deine Stimme ❤❤😂😂😂

[@tutsybassista]

Wait! Gotta get my buds! Hmmm. I feel like it's slower and something's missing. Off the top of my head, I'd like Linkin Park on this, don't know why. I think maybe more crunchy guitar, guitar line, or background vocals. This is just my 1st reaction. ✌️

[@emoveej]

the cover is using the original tempo of the song which is about the same as Anti-Hero, I tend to deviate to softer arrangements if the song is not that upbeat and this is how I imagined it (for comparisons Midnight Rain and WCS have higher tempo's so it's more upbeat in nature), maybe I'll experiment more on an upbeat version of The Great War someday ✌

[@sujinlee2235]

amazing as always

[@FANESTOFilm]

Can I request song from folklore album become rock version. Cause I am so curious about it😁

[@emoveej]

tbh haven't listened much to Taylor after Reputations until Midnights came, I'll have to do some catching up then maybe cover them in the future :)

[@FANESTOFilm]

@@emoveej that’s okay. I just curious how the country song like folklore album to be rock version.

[@ameilberuela7915]

bejeweled rock version next 💗

[@joepb03_]

This is just perfect ❤

[@liverpoolfan69699]

cool! actually better than original 🙏keep strong man ✊

[@asrgnk]

This is so good , wtf ❤️

[@fiona8230]

I imagined this with a bit of a brighter guitar and more chug chug rhythm, but I’ve needed all these Taylor Swift songs as electric as you’re doing!

[@emoveej]

thanks :)

[@Evan.280]

when the anniversary of the end of WW1 rolls around Swifties need to get this to number 1

[@anonymous0340]

You're incredible!

[@emoveej]

no, you are!

[@fosminclorin]

This is one of my favourites

[@emoveej]

what's your top cover in the channel? I'm guessing Midnight Rain ✌

[@fosminclorin]

@@emoveej I think Maroon

[@Luis-xv3ne]

first time i liked this song with this version

[@Aviethebest]

Please do the Jack songs, cuz Aaron ones are just perfect they way they are.

[@fosminclorin]

But this is amazing

[@몽키매직-e3z]

Aaron's song is not perfect, honestly, Jack is better.. Aaron lacks rock spirit.

[@fosminclorin]

@@몽키매직-e3z but Jack is definitely not the best producer Taylor has worked with

[@Aviethebest]

@@몽키매직-e3z Jack instead has the rock spirit ahahhahaha Aaron is on a alternative rock band honey...

[@emoveej]

I don't really look at who produced it, if I have an idea for a cover I try to make it lol :)
