As the other chords' version might sound fine but is completely different to what Rachel
plays, here is the one given me by a good man who managed to figure it out. It sounds
really good and fairly close to the original to me.
Here are the (few) chords played:
Fm x24432
[ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] x04432
[ch]Fm/Db[/ch] 3x4432
Em x13321
[ch]Fm/C[/ch] 2x4432
C9 212020
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch] x7897x
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch] (Bb down octave) 078970
Ebsus2sus4 x02430
Db 355433
C 24432
Db6 355400
Bbm 022000
Eb 577655
G x4666x
Put a capo on the 6th fret and follow this basic picking (Fm example):
E|---------------|
B|----3-3----3-3-|
G|----4-4----4-4-|
D|---------------|
A|-2-2----2-2----|
E|---------------|
I hope it is clear enough... yes I know that the names of the chords are not related to
the capo (forgive me), but the fingering is.
Shall we begin then?
INTRO (PICKED):
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm Em
Fm [ch]Fm/C[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] [ch]Fm/Bb[/ch] C9
VERSE (PICKED):
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
Deep deep down under mountains I have heard them call my name
Will I [Em]play their little game and tell them
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
Deep deep down I've been waiting for the fighting to begin
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch]
Hold my hands on
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
Deep sleep now, under skies of pressing dark upon my dress
[Em]Watch it turn from white to red under the [Fm]bone clean moon
[ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
I am clinging to this burning shaking bed
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch]
Must I hold my hands up
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch] (Bb down octave)
My bloody hands up
CHORUS (STRUM!):
[Fm] [Ebsus2sus4] [Bb]
[Fm] [C] [Db6]
[Fm]Mercy, mercy, [Ebsus2sus4]I've been c[Bb]aught
[Fm]Lying with my [Em]darkest thought
[Bbm] [Eb] [G] [Fm][C]
T[Db6]hey grab my wings and pin me to the wall
[Fm]Oh light please try to [Ebsus2sus4]hold your g[Bb]round
[Fm]Lift me up before I [Em]drown
The [Bbm]din creeps 'neath my [Eb]skin
And I can't [G]hear no Goodness [Fm]speak
INTRO (PICKED):
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm Em
Fm [ch]Fm/C[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] [ch]Fm/Bb[/ch] C9
VERSE (PICKED):
From the [Fm]neighbouring town
[ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
There's a boy who comes to sing upon our street
I [Em]watch him from the window thinking [Fm]deep deep down
[ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
He'd be richer if he just became a thief
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch]
Instead he holds his hands out
Fm [ch]Fm/Eb[/ch]
I walk down to the river
[ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
Stand and shiver in the wind
Throw [Em]stones to watch them sinking to the [Fm]icy blue
[ch]Fm/Eb[/ch] [ch]Fm/Db[/ch] Fm
Let it rise above my ankles
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch]
I don't want this darkness
[ch]C7/Bb[/ch] (Bb down octave) Fm C Db6
But the sun just falls from the sky
CHORUS (SSSSTRUM!)
CHORUS (PALM MUTE, STRRRRUM!)
INTRO (PICKED)
If anything I wrote is wrong it is because it is 2:38 in the morning... and if it is
right instead, then thank that good man, as I already said.
Have fun spending - at least - one week learning how to play this song.
I shall soon be writing the tab to Sleep aswell.
Good night for now!
