Hi! This is a great song from the new album "Backspacer" and I wanted to make an acoustic version of it. It sounds OK to me, not perfect, but good enough. :-D Play along with the song to figure out the timing. If you have any corrections, please let me know! Enjoy! Intro: Bm D Bm 5x D A G Verse: it's the same as the intro and it's kind of hard to write down the correct timing so you'll have to listen to the song to figure it out. Bm D Bm D Understand she's a force of nature Bm D Bm D Contraband hiding deep inside her soul Bm D Bm D A Exorcising her will to lose control G She lets go A common man, he don't stand a chance, no Wonderland pulling Alice in the hole No way to save someone who won't take the rope And just let's go Chorus: D A One man stands the edge of the ocean Bm G A beacon on dry land D A Eyes upon the horizon Bm A G A Bm (D Bm)4x In the dark before the dawn Verse: Hurricane has the trade winds blowing A gale force shaking windows in the storm Shipwreck on the rock that he calls home With one light on Chorus D A Somewhere there's a siren singing Bm G A song only he hears D A All the strength that you might think Bm A G A Would disappear,.. Resolving D A One man stands alone, Awaiting Bm G For her to come home D A Eyes upon the horizon Bm A G A Bm A G D A In dark before the darkness meets the dawn. Bridge: A Bm 2x A Makes me ache,... Makes me shake,... Bm A G A Bm A G A F# Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe? Verse: Last I saw, he was out there waiting A silhouette in the black light, full moon glow In the sand there he stands upon the shore Forevermore Chorus D A Somewhere there's a siren singing Bm G A song only he hears D A All the strength that you might think Bm A G A Would disappear, resolving D A One man stands along, Awaiting Bm G For her to come home D A Eyes are closed,.. You cannot know Bm A G A But his heart don't seem to D A Bm G roam. Outro: play D A Bm G a few times and end with G A Bm A G A Bm A Bm
