  • Artist:

    Rise Against

Hey guys,
This is my first Tab, a Chords Tab for Rise Against's new song The Black Market.
Credits also to Joshua Garcia for creating the Black Market tab I took the Chords as 
well as the Intro and the end of the Chorus from.

Please let me know if there is anything wrong. I'm not quite happy about the A#m in the verse.

Enjoy ^^

A currency of heartache and sorrow
The air we breathe is stale with mold
To shadows we are slaves digging deeper every day
But emptiness is growing so old 

C#m                                   A#m   F#m
Headlamps light the tunnels we wander
C#m                                     A#m F#m                                                 
They shimmer and they dance on the walls
C#m                                   E            F#m                                                        
We're lost inside these caves as the chances of escape
      E                  F#m           C#m
Grow slimmer 'til there's no chance at all 

               A                       
This ink, it travels from the page
        F#m
Up my hand and to my veins
C#m                             B
Choking on those stories I've told
               A                                
If there are words here left to say
F#m             B            A
I just want to let you know         

    B                         C#m  
I'm falling on my knees right now
      E                      A
I'm covered in the mess I made
      B                      C#m
These colors used to wash right out
      E                     A
But now they are a part of me
               B                     C#m
And I've been searching for a remedy
             E                           
When all along it's been in front of me
A                B
I need you here, I need you

      now                     Right    now

C#m                            A#m      F#m
We traffic in the blackest of markets
C#m                            A#m      F#m
Trade misery like diamonds and gold
   C#m                            E             F#m
The angst that we exchange for applause or petty praise
    E           F#m        C#m
Is finally now taking its toll

              A
But there's a world above the ground
  F#m
A life that we can lead
      C#m                           B
We're washing off the dirt from our clothes
        A                    
I don't want to live without
F#m           B               A
I just wanna let you know

    B                         C#m  
I'm falling on my knees right now
      E                      A
I'm covered in the mess I made
      B                      C#m
These colors used to wash right out
      E                     A
But now they are a part of me
               B                     C#m
And I've been searching for a remedy
             E                           
When all along it's been in front of me
A                B
I need you here, I need you

(Black stains) they mark me like a letter
                                        B                               
(Won't fade) cracking under the pressure
                               A            B
(Black stains) nothing stays gold

          A
There's a world above the ground
  F#m                  
A life that we can lead
          C#m                     B
But we're lost deep down in these holes
         A
And I've seen the way out 
    F#m            B                     A
Now I just want to let you know 

    B                         C#m  
I'm falling on my knees right now
      E                      A
I'm covered in the mess I made
      B                      C#m
These colors used to wash right out
      E                     A
But now they are a part of me
               B                     C#m
And I've been searching for a remedy
             E                          A    
When all along it's been in front of me
              B                 C#m          E
Your voice it washes the stains away

           A         B
Whoa oh oh oh oh oho

           C#m       E
Whoa oh oh oh oh oho

           A         B
Whoa oh oh oh oh oho

    A (single strum)
Oho oho
