DON'T SAY A WORD- Sonata Arctica Acoustic version by sinForge xJp This IS NOT based on a recording/performance!! Standard Tuning, Capo 2 Em... Bm... Am... Em... Bm... Am... Em Bm I am your poison candygram, the love that's meant to fade away Am Em Vade retro, alter ego, move aside, I'm choking on this life Bm I think I tolerate your hate, as long as you're afraid Am C All I wanted was to be with you and suffer every day Am Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn B C Mortally wounded, feelings sheltered me Am Once again my shadow will enter your life B Em Time to walk with me the last mile Bm I read a book about a man, a love, a woman, how they died Am Em How I was waved aside, listen how the headless doves cry Bm I truly see a madman in the mirror when I'm weak Am C I spent a year in love before I realized it's me Am Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore B C Make me believe it, oh I know you're lying Am Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why B Could I let you wait out the night Em D Em Mother always said ?My son, do the noble thing..." C Am G D/F# Em You have to finish what you started, no matter what, now sit, watch and learn D Em "It's not how long you live, but what your morals say" C Am G D/F# Em Cannot keep your part of the deal so don't say a word, don't say a word Bm It won't be long now, love, like mist I slowly fill the room Am Em I place a black candle on your chest, the path of night is manifest Bm I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase Am C It was not me who ran away, you made me stray Am Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore B C Make me believe it, oh I know you lie Am Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why B Settling the score, we pass the twilight Em C Em D Em Mother always said, ?My son... do the noble thing" C Am G D/F# Em You have to finish what you started, no matter what, now sit, watch and learn C Em D Em "It's not how long you live... but what your morals say" C Am G D/F# Cannot keep your part of the deal so don't say a word, don't say a word F#m D F#m E F#m Strawberry blonde, your stranglehold on my heart is bound to end D Bm A E F#m I suppose, life sometimes, it doesn't go the way it was meant D F#m E F#m Though you never were a believer, I assure you: I won't die before you F#m You read the book now, the part ?Ashes to ashes, dust to dust? Bm G Em Ab G Short is the flight of this little starling Bm G Em Love sounds familiar, but the emotion escapes me Bm G Em Ab G I will carpe the diem while it's still here Bm G Em D D/C# And see how the fear of death becomes her F#m F#dim F#m F#dim We had it all so sweet.. Made for me, you, indeed F#m F#dim A C#m Big secret, small the lie.. Don't cry for me, oh, argentite F#m F#dim F#m F#dim No word you say tonight can make this be alright F#m F#dim A C#m F#m I'll help you follow through- Remember this? Pacta sunt servanda F#dim F#m F#dim The wounds are too deep, I need to keep the scars F#m F#dim A C#m To prove there was a time when I loved something more than life F#m F#dim F#m F#dim Unlike the last time here, I now have the means and a will sincere F#m F#dim A C#m F#m Your knight is nowhere near. Unfortunate for you, this makes me your God Am... F... Am... G... Am... F... Dm... C C/B Cm... Ab.. Cm... Bb... Cm... Ab.. Fm... Eb Dm... C... Dm... Bb.. Gm... F C/E Dm... C... Dm... Bb.. Gm...
