Author/Artist: Bad Religion
Title: Tiny Voices
Album: Stranger Than Fiction
Transcribed by: Xylo
The chords and timing with the words aren't mine (Sorry, one Johan Karlsson). I used a tuner to figure out what the chords were in relation to the chords listed. Sorry, I have a bad ear for notes, and this is my favorite of all of Bad Religion's songs, and I was irritated that the best I could find was a single chord listing on a Geocities site. I also think that Mr. Brett's part in the background of the intro isn't tabbed right, but far be it from me to say how.
Intro riff:
C A# C G G# C A# C G# G(x4)

VERSE:

the brown and orange sky holds its breath
the billions of tiny pinhole embers

as the sun retreats to the distant horizon,
fade into a morning sky filled with poignant morose wonder,
---------------------------------------|
---------------------------------------|
--------------------8------------------|
--------------------8----------------8-|
--------------------6----------------8-|
-------------------------------------6-|
C G# A# F
and our hearts palpitate anxiously as we soon will lay supine,
waking we bare a cosmetic peace that verifies the turmoil,

which we carry deep inside

and from somewhere in our black,
-------------------------------|
-------------------------------|

subconscious minds when we're asleep,
------------------------------------|

comes a haunting swelling mass of voices resonating,

----------6----------------5--------------10-----8-|
----------4----------------3--------------8------6-|

its screams of forgotten victims and the cries of innocence,
-----------------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------|
------------6-------------5---------------10---------------|
------------6-------------5---------------10---------------|
------------4-------------3---------------8----------------|

G# D# A# G G# D#
tiny voices, harbored deep within

-6-8--8---5---6---------------8--|
-6-6--8---5---6---------------6--|

and if we don't confront them they will never go away
