This is one of my first attempts at chords. The lyrics might be kind of off! This
song is awesome and I couldn't find any tabs for it so I thought I'd try my hand at it. Enjoy!
Capo 1
Standard Tuning
Em D C B
Em D C
Deep deep down under mountains I have heard them call my name
B
Will play their little game and tell them
Em D C
Deep deep down I've been waiting for the fighting to begin
B
Hold my hands up
Em D C
Deep sleep now, under skies of pressing dark upon my dress
B Em
Watch it turn from white to red under the bone clean moon
D C
I am clinging to this burning shaking bed
B
Must I hold my hands up
B B
My bloody hands up
Chorus:
Em D
Mercy, Mercy I've been caught
C B
Lying with my darkest thought
Em D C B
They grab my wings and pin me to the wall
Em D
Light please try to hold your ground
C B
Lift me up before I drown
Em D
The din creeps 'neath my skin
C B
And I can't hear no goodness speak
Em
From the neighboring town
D C
There's a boy who comes to sing upon our street
B Em
I watch him from the window thinking deep deep down
D C
He'd be richer if he just became a thief
B
Instead he holds his hands out
Em D
I walk down to the river
C
Stand and shiver in the wind
B Em
Throw stones and watch them sink into the icy blue
D C B
Let it rise about my ankles
B
I don't want this darkness
B
But the sun just falls from the sky
Chorus again x 2
