The Last Amazing Grays- Sonata Arctica
Acoustic version by sinForge xJp
Standard Tuning 1/2 Down (D#G#C#F#A#d#)
This IS NOT based on a recording/performance!!

*I did NOT tab the Instrumental section.. It's very over-baring if you're playing 
 the song unplugged like this.. plus it was too hard to transcribe perfectly ^_^;;

F          Am            G        
..The mystery of death before us..
F            C                   Dm         Gsus4 G  F                  
..Soon every night can bring the light, and close my eyes..
          Am                 G
Sometimes life in here's too limiting..
F           C                Dm    Gsus4  G
..Sometimes we don't care at all.. Some - times..

F                    Am             G                D
Time will change the familiar face, brightest colors fade to gray..
    F                 Am                      G       C  G
The fear is real, one winter's day brings the clarity..


F             Dm               Gsus4      G
..I feel that time is catching up with us..
F          Dm            Am           G 
..How many days until its.. hunger is satisfied?
F            Dm           Am               C            F  
..Living the final golden days, we are the last amazing grays..
           Dm                  Gsus4    G  Dsus4 D
Hoping the young will lead the pack now..


F       Am               G
..I can feel my heart is beating.. still..
F       C               Dm     Gsus4 G     F
..I can see you with my eyes.. I..   still see..
            Am             G
But I can't run the way my children can..
F         C                Dm     Gsus4 G
..Can't accept the helping hand.. Leave me..

F                       Am            G               D
You are the strong one, trust in me.. You must lead instead of me, now..
F                      Am            G             C    G    F
There's no time, don't hesitate.. Or you will also find your fate..


F             Dm               Gsus4      G
..I feel that time is catching up with us..
F          Dm            Am           G 
..How many days until its.. hunger is satisfied?
F            Dm           Am               C            F  
..Living the final golden days, we are the last amazing grays..
           Dm                  Gsus4    G  Dsus4 D
Hoping the young will lead the pack now..


Am          G  C     F        G         D        F              Am
In the eyes of every newborn, I see the future.. Life is just a phase..
        G  C        F        G          D            F       G    C#m    
I close my eyes and see them all here beside me, the last amazing grays..

(C#m)       B  E     A        B         F#           A   B      C#m
In the eyes of every newborn, I see the past times.. A familiar face..
        B  E        A         B       F#       A           B      C#m 
I close my eyes and see them, waiting for me, amongst the amazing grays..


[INSTRUMENTAL - To replace this section, I'm making a simple modulation
                back down to the second key we arrived in (tonic = "Am") ]


..C#m B  E  Am


(Am)    G  C     F     G     D     F         G
Oooooooh.. Ooooooooh.. Ooooooooh.. Ooooooooh..

Am             G     C        F          
Mountain sings to me for this last time.. 
G           D      F            G  Am
Marking the moment I have found my place..
         G  C        F            
I closed my eyes and joined them.. 
G            D       F             G    Am    G  C  F..  
Guarding the young, amongst the amazing grays..
