about

I wrote White Flag while I was struggling with a bad case of pneumonia a few days into my first US tour. I was on my way to play a house show in Bend, OR. I played the show wearing a back brace singing through a PA to a living room containing 5 people. It was a very low point for me. Soon White Flag became the set closer and it has never give up any ground. At its core, this is a song about surrender and resistance and total effort in the midst of struggle.

lyrics

White Flag (2007) Chords: A D E

If it’s true that this would happen before even time began

Then I guess I’ll just surrender because I’m doing all I can

Yes in vain I’ve risen early just to stumble home too late

Ignoring all the factors that determine my fate

And I’m gonna raise the white flag

I’m gonna raise the black flag too

I’m gonna raise the white flag

And sing this song for you

You see these words they are not weapons

But these streets brew honesty

We’re all soldiers a journey

We’re all pilgrims you and me

So may all fear be forgotten as the memories fade away

May the whole world join us in this song as we dance on yesterday
