NO CAPO - Standard Tuning

[Intro tab:]
(its all on the high e string, so i just typed up that one string)

[Verse:]
E5
Tonight I'm so alone
C5
This sorrow takes a hold
G5
Don't leave me here so cold
D5
(Never want to be so cold)
E5
Your touch used to be so kind
C5
Your touch used to give me life
G5
I've waited all this time,
D5
I've wasted so much time

[Pre-Chorus:]
C5                 D5
Don't leave me alone
                        C5
Cause I barely see at all
                  D5   G5
Don't leave me alone, I'm

[Chorus:]
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                          D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5                     G5
Dreaming of the way it used to be
E5       D5
Can you hear me?
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                             D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5           G5       E5  D5
Falling inside the black
C5                 G5            E5   D5
Falling inside, falling inside the black

[Verse:]
E5
You were my source of strength
C5
I've traded everything
G5
That I love for this one thing
D5
(Stranded in the offering)
E5
Don't leave me here like this
C5
Can't hear me scream from the abyss
G5                   D5
And now I wish for you my desire

[Pre-Chorus:]
C5                 D5
Don't leave me alone
                       C5
Cause I barely see at all
                 D5    G5
Don't leave me alone, I'm

[Chorus:]
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                          D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5                         G5
Dreaming of the way it used to be
E5       D5
Can you hear me?
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                          D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5        G5        E5   D5
Falling inside the black
C5                 G5             Em(2xh)       Em(2xh)
     Em(2xh)     Em(2xh)
Falling inside, falling inside ---the black, -----black, -----black, -----black

 (I usually just play the verse chords here... sooo.... Em , C, G, D and I usually
play it twice, very loudly to emphasize the power that i cant really tab on an acoustic
guitar - and on the last D, i hold it out an extra measure and add in a suspension, so 
it's more like a Dsus2 chord :D )

[Chorus:]
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                           D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5                        G5
Dreaming of the way it used to be
E5      D5
Can you hear me?
C5
Falling in the black
G5
Slipping through the cracks
E5                           D5
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C5         G5         (this would be where i put E5 , but this line merges with the next one)
Falling inside the black
E5      D5
Can you hear me?
C5         G5        (same as above)
Falling inside the black
E5      D5
Can you hear me?
C5         G5      (yes, it just keeps repeating...)
Falling inside the black
E5      D5
Can you hear me?
C5
Falling inside
G5                E5       D5
Falling inside, falling inside
     E5
The black!
