Tuning:  STANDARD

Notes (Mito): I made this in Standard, but the studio version is in D Major (DADF#AD),
that's why the Fig1 is a bit off, but I think it sounds ok. Comments are welcome.

Intro:

|Dsus2/A|Dsus2/A|Dsus2/A|Dsus2/A|

F#m                            Dsus2/A
I've faced the fathoms in your deep
F#m                         Dsus2/A
Withstood the suitors quiet sleep
F#m                                G   Dsus2/G        G
pulled down the heavens just to please  you    appease  you
   Dsus2/G          G       Dsus2/G
the wind    blows and I      know

|A |Em7 |

 A         Em7                          A
I can't go on, digging roses from your grave
          Em7               A
to linger on, beyond the beyond
                  Em7
where the willows weep
                      A           Em7
and the whirlpools sleep you'll find me
     G     Dsus2/G  G    Dsus2/G
The coarse tide reflects sky

        Dsus2/A         F#m
And the nightmare rides on
        Dsus2/A         F#m
and the nightmare rides on
          Dsus2/A     F#m
With a december black psalm
        Dsus2/A         F#m
and the nightmare rides on

G    Dsus2/G     G     Dsus2/G
What I  fear is lost    here
G    Dsus2/G       G     Dsus2/G
the wind blows and I       know

Fig1 4x
All you have to do is run away
and steal yourself from me become a mystery
to gaze into

Fig2
you're so cruel
in all you do
but still I believe
I believe in you

|Dsus2/A |Em7 |Dsus2/A |Em7 |
|Dsus2/A |Em7 |Dsus2/A |Em7 |

Dsus2/G
So may you come with your own knives
Dsus2/G
you'll never take me alive
Dsus2/G
With all the force of what is true
Dsus2/G                 A
Is there nothing I can do?

           Em7                           A
I can't go on, digging roses from your grave
          Em7            A
to linger on, beyond the beyond
                  Em7
where the willows weep
                   Dsus2/A            Em7
and the whirlpools sleep, you'll find me

        Dsus2/A         F#m
And the nightmare rides on
        Dsus2/A         F#m
and the nightmare rides on
       Dsus2/A      F#m
with a silver back song
        Dsus2/A         F#m
and the nightmare rides on

Dsus2/A

F#m                        Dsus2/A
I've faced fathoms in your deep
F#m                          Dsus2/A
Withstood the suitors quiet sleep
F#m                             Dsus2/A
pulled down the heavens just to please
Dsus2/A                  Dsus2/A  F#m Dsus2/A F#m  Dsus2/A
To hold the flower I can't keep
