---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evael 10:00 - Swallow the Sun (Part III of "Plague of Butterflies") ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just my intuition of the basic chord structure. If you're playing it with a guitar, I suggest using drop-C tuning, so that you can play the C minor as an open chord. It sounds great that way, especially with an acoustic guitar. Hope you like the tab! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro: [Cm7] -- [D#] -- [Gm - D#maj7] -- [F] [Cm7] -- [D#] A1: Gm (355333@1) F#m (244222@1) (F#sus2) F#mCold, (244222@1)oh so cold is this air that the night brought.

D# (x43121@3) Cm (x3101x@1) I kept my eyes closed but still felt the light, Gm (355333@1) F#m (244222@1) and the room was filled by butterflies.
