Standard Tuning: EADGBE Clean sound, slight distortion during the verses, maybe add a little Reverb to get a sound as to the track. Verse 1: E G#m E G#m Just give me a second, darling, to clear my head E G#m E G#m Just put down those scissors, baby, on the single bed E G#m The sand in the hour glass is running low E G#m I came through thunder, the cold, wind, the rain and the snow A To find you awake by your window sill G#m F#m A sight for sore eyes, and a view to kill -------------------------------------------- Interlude: (Use whammy for the rest of these chords) E G#m E G#m A A G#m F#m -------------------------------------------- Verse 2: E G#m I broke down in horror at you standing there E G#m The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair E G#m I shouted with passion ? I love you so much? E G#m But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch A You whispered where are you? A I questioned your doubt G#m F#m But soon realised you were talking to God now ----------------------------- Pre-Chorus - E... play an open E chord once with heavy distortion, then turn distortion and back to clean once verse has started. ----------------------------- Chorus: --(No guitar but u can play the bass notes)-- A B You got blood your hands C#m And I know it?s mine I just need more time A F#m C#m So get of your low, let?s dance like we used to A B C#m But there?s a light in the distance, waiting for me I will wait for you A F#m C#m So get of your low, let?s kiss like we used to -------------------------------------------- Interlude (whammy again): E G#m E G#m A A G#m F#m -------------------------------------------- Verse 3: E G#m I looked in the mirror, but something was wrong E G#m I saw you behind, but my reflection was gone E G#m There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow E G#m A voice then come gently ?It?s your time to go? A A That record you played, as you beg for forgiveness G#m ?Don?t touch me? I screamed F#m I?ve got unfinished business ----------------------------- Pre Chorus - E... play an open E chord once with distortion, then turn distortion off back to clean once verse has started. ----------------------------- Chorus: A B You got blood your hands C#m And I know it?s mine I just need more time A F#m C#m So get of your low, let?s dance like we used to A B C#m But there?s a light in the distance, waiting for me I will wait for you A F#m C#m So get of your low, let?s kiss like we used to A B You got blood your hands C#m And I know it?s mine I just need more time A F#m C#m So get of your low, let?s dance like we used to A B C#m But there?s a light in the distance, waiting for me I will wait for you A F#m So get of your low, let?s kiss like we used to Enjoy.
