This Is History - Phil Campbell

This transcription is taken from the live performance on 'Later with Jools Holland'.
If you haven't heard it then check it out on YouTube, as it's an incredibly powerful
and is better than the album version in my opinion!

I don't know the proper names for the odd chords so I've given them my own numbering to

Come on and say something

And we'll walk through pastures new

But let us feast on what we know

And we'll save the rest for later

The morning's well over

A certain freshness leaves the air

I'm holding on to every day in shame

You know you wouldn't let me
Am G D
And something in my actions still remain

You know you're gonna tempt me

You made me see the other side of love
D Em
And where it's gonna lead me
Am G
But in the morning sun
D D2
I'm holy now
D D2
I'm holy now
