You Know My Name - Chris Cornell

Alright, I took the original song down a key, or at least I think it's a key...

Standard Tuning

Intro: Am F D x4

Verse 1:
Am                                         Fm
If you take a life do you know what you'll give?
                      C            
Odds are, you won't like what it is.
Am                                             Fm 
When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me?
                   C       E  
By the merciless eyes of deceit? 

F           E              Am  G       F#m
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights
F           E                Am G  F#m  F  
But you yourself are nothing so divine 
               E
Just next in line.

Chorus:
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F 
The odds will betray you 
           D
And I will replace you 
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you 
             Am       F
It longs to kill you 
                    D
Are you willing to die? 

D
The coldest blood runs through my veins 
Am F D
You know my name 

Verse 2:
Am                                         Fm
If you come inside things will not be the same 
           C             
When you return to the night 
Am
And if you think you've won 
                   Fm
You never saw me change 
              C              E
The game that we all been playing 

F            E                   Am G   F#m  F
I've seen diamonds cut through harder men 
             E
Than you yourself
           Am   G  F#m F 
But if you must pretend 
                   E
You may meet your end 

Chorus
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F 
The odds will betray you 
              D
And I will replace you 
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you 
            Am       F
It longs to kill you 
                    D
Are you willing to die? 

D
The coldest blood runs through my veins 

Bridge:
F
Try to hide your hand 
D
Forget how to feel (Forget how to feel)
F                         D
Life is gone with just a spin of the wheel (Spin of the wheel) 

Chorus
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F 
The odds will betray you 
              D
And I will replace you 
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you 
            Am       F
It longs to kill you 
                    D
Are you willing to die? 

E
The coldest blood runs through my veins 
 
You know my name (until End)

Am F D
