AFI Black Sails In The Sunset Midnight Sun Standard Tuning *I am not showing where to palm mute, or how many times to strum* Intro: These are all harmonics with distorted guitar |-12-----------5-----------------------| |------7------------------7-------12---| |----------5----------7-------5--------| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| Verse 1: What went down on the side of the road? What I saw at the edge of the sea. Only those elements time cannot wear, and they follow. What seeped out throught the cracks in time, what sucks out the color in me? What awaits beyond infinity? |-7---7-5---5---6---8----8--7---9----3---7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3--| |-9---9-7---9---6---8----8--7---9----3---9---9-7---9---6---8----8--7---9----3--| |-9---9-7---9---7---9----9--8---10---4---9---9-7---9---7---9----9--8---10---4--| |-9---9-7---9---8---10---10-9---11---5---9---9-7---9---8---10---10-9---11---5--| |-7---7-5---7---8---10---10-9---11---5---7---7-5---7---8---10---10-9---11---5--| |-7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3---7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3--| Chorus 1: Beyond and to all time I stand, Beyond and to all time I stand... |------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------| |-9---5----------------9---5---------------| |-9---5---3--2--5--4---9---5---3--2--5--4--| |-7---3---0--0--2--2---7---3---0--0--2--2--| |-7---3----------------7---3---------------| Verse 2: What blew in with the great gale? What weighed down the falling leaves? What came forth from the remains? What has always lived and gone unseen? What has caused the night to fall? Who speaks of eternity? Who awakes to night eternally? |-7---7-5---5---6---8----8--7---9----3---7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3--| |-9---9-7---9---6---8----8--7---9----3---9---9-7---9---6---8----8--7---9----3--| |-9---9-7---9---7---9----9--8---10---4---9---9-7---9---7---9----9--8---10---4--| |-9---9-7---9---8---10---10-9---11---5---9---9-7---9---8---10---10-9---11---5--| |-7---7-5---7---8---10---10-9---11---5---7---7-5---7---8---10---10-9---11---5--| |-7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3---7---7-5---7---6---8----8--7---9----3--| Chorus 2 (twice as long): Beyond and to all time I stand, Beyond and to all time I stand... |------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------| |-9---5----------------9---5---------------| |-9---5---3--2--5--4---9---5---3--2--5--4--| |-7---3---0--0--2--2---7---3---0--0--2--2--| |-7---3----------------7---3---------------| Bridge: |-7---5---7---5---7------------8----6---8----7---9-------------7---5---7---5---7--| |-9---7---9---7---9------------8----6---8----7---9-------------9---7---9---7---9-| |-9---7---9---7---9------------9----7---9----8---10------------9---7---9---7---9-| |-9---7---9---7---9---12--11---10---8---10---9---11---12--11---9---7---9---7---9-| |-7---5---7---5---7---10--10---10---8---10---9---11---10--10---7---5---7---5---7-| |-7---5---7---5---7---10--10---8----6---8----7---9----10--10---7---5---7---5---7-| |----------8----6---8----7---9----10------------------------------| |----------8----6---8----7---9----12------------------------------| |----------9----7---9----8---10---12------------------------------| |-12--11---10---8---10---9---11---12--11--12--11--12--11--12--11--| |-10--10---10---8---10---9---11---10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--| |-10--10---8----6---8----7---9----10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--| Interlude: Right to me this sounds like this was recorded with an unplugged electric guitar using a microphone up to the strings.
