These chords are an INTERPRETATION of this song. This is NOT an exact rendition of the
by ANY shape of the imagination. I just enjoy playing it this way more.
(Pick the verses rather than strum, keep the picking pattern simple)
There are [Am]things I have do[E]ne.
There?s a pl[E]ace I have g[Am]one.
Am(bar) E
There?s a beast and I let it run
now it?s running [E]my w[Am]ay.
There are [Am]things I regr[E]et
You can?t for[E]give you can?t fo[Am]rget
Am(bar) E
There?s a gift that you sent
you sent it [E]my w[Am]ay.
(Yes ? the verse DOES end w/ Am and Chorus still starts with Am
If you pick the verse and strum the chorus it works great)
Chorus:
So take this n[Am]ight
Wrap it ar[G]ound me like a sheet.
I k[Dsus2]now I?m not forgiven
but I n[E]eed a place to sleep.
So take this n[Am]ight
Lay me d[G]own on the street.
I [Dsus2]know I?m not forgiven
but I h[E]ope that I?ll be given some p[Am]eace.
(Verse 2: Back to simple picking.)
(Follow the Am-2x E-2x pattern originally set in the first verse and remember this song
all about vocal inflection not guitar prowess ... listen to the song if you don't
me.)
There?s a game that I played.
There are rules I had to break.
There?s mistakes
that I made but I made them my way.
So take this night
and wrap it around me like a sheet.
I know I?m not forgiven
but I need a place to sleep.
So take this night
and lay me down on the street.
I know I?m not forgiven
but I hope that I?ll be given some peace.
Some peace, some peace.
Comment if you'd like ... I already told you that its an interpretation of the original.
