If you're playing the electric parts, I suggest you play power chords for the verse and
just single
root notes for the second part of the verse, and strum the chorus. That sounds the best
to me but feel
free to have fun and strum however you please :)
Intro:
Em G D Bm (3x)
Em G B Em
Verse 1.1
Bury me in silence
For I'll never hear the truth
Em G D Bm
My coffin will be empty
Cause you'll never steal my youth
Em G D Bm
VERSE 1.2

(BegEmun) G D Bm
Em G D Bm
VERSE 2.1 and 2.2 same as before
It's something of a pity
But you'll never understand
How a boy can grow and
Still never be a man
I would trade the sun for nothing
And the glancing of a star
If you could just remember
Grains of dust is all we are
It only takes a second
For a beat to kill a heart
CHORUS 2

I've reconciled with all that's gGone
The speed of Ddarkness has beAgun
INTERLUDE
F#m Only time and life wBmill tell

SOLO
B5 D (2x)
BRIDGE
G Speed of dBmarkness lights ourA way
VERSE 3.1 and 3.2 same as before
You tore this land asunder
But my pride will bring it back
I would trade the sun for nothing
And the glancing of a star
If you could just remember
Grains of dust is all we are
It only takes a second
For beat to kill a heart
CHORUS 2
OUTRO
Em G D Bm 3x
