------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE SILENCE (ACOUSTIC) - Avalanche City ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Joe Doul The other versions of The Silence may be correct for the version they have, but the acoustic version I have from the Snow EP sounds different to the versions on here. Tuning: Standard, Capo on 6th fret *** *Intro: C, Am, F, G *Verse: C Am I remember a conversation at a restaurant F With a friend of mine, he?d a successful mind G And he told me of his life C And the plans he?d made to come this far Am F Had gone so well and now we?re all so proud of him And he told me how G But I couldn?t bear to listen *Chorus: C Cause all my life I?ve heard Am Of the dreams of the organized F To be the best in the company G To win the awards but that?s not me C Am Cause all my life all I ever wanted F G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence *Verse: C I had to say that I had to leave Am Cause it was on my mind F That all he set in me were insecurities G But that dream was never mine C Cause the plans I thought I?d made so far Am F Had gone alright but all that I feel now is doubt And he told me why G But I couldn?t bear to listen *Chorus: C Cause all my life I?ve heard Am Of the dreams of the organized F To be the best in the company G To win the awards but that?s not me C Am Cause all my life all I ever wanted F G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence *Outro: C, Am, F, G (to end)
