Comments: When I first heard that these guys were making a CD, 
I was pretty shocked. I thought this CD wouldn't sound the same 
without Layne Staley, which is true, but this CD still has the 
same Alice In Chains feel to it. This song really blew me away 
and I have been listening to it ever since. From what I have 
seen in a live video, this it what William DuVall plays in 
the song. 

If there's any corrections that need to be made, let me know.

Thank you and please rate or comment.

D sus2    B sus4    A sus2     E     

D sus2    B sus4    A sus2     E     



D sus2        B sus4        A sus2     E
      I don't wanna feel no more

D sus2        B sus4      A sus2     E
      It's easier to keep falling
D sus2   B sus4      A sus2     E
      Imitations are pale
D sus2         B sus4    A sus2
      The emptiness of tomorrows 
      C# m7           D sus2     B sus4
      haunted by your ghost
 

A sus2   E                  D sus2     B sus4
Lay down black gives way to blue 
A sus2   E          D sus2     B sus4
Lay down I remember you

A sus2     C# m7


D sus2       B sus4      A sus2     E
      Fading out by design 
D sus2        B sus4       A sus2     E
      Consciously avoiding changes 
D sus2         B sus4         A sus2     E
      Curtains drawn now it's done 
D sus2     B sus4     A sus2
      Silencing all tomorrows, 
      C# m7          D sus2     B sus4
      forcing a good-bye


A sus2   E                  D sus2     B sus4
Lay down black gives way to blue 
A sus2   C# m7         D sus2
Lay down I'll remember you
