--------- Evael 10:00 - Swallow the Sun (Part III of "Plague of Butterflies") --------- Just my intuition of the basic chord structure. If you're playing it with a guitar, I suggest using drop-C tuning, so that you can play the C minor as an open chord. It sounds great that way, especially with an acoustic guitar. Hope you like the tab! --------- Intro: [Cm7] -- [D#] -- [Gm - D#maj7] -- [F] [Cm7] -- [D#] A1: Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Cold, oh so cold is this air that the night brought. Gm(D#maj7)Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Silent, too quiet are the woods in the eve of this night. Gm (D#maj7) Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Once again I lit the candle on my window. Gm(D#maj7) Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m And... And waited. Waited for the sleep... B1: [Cm7] -- [D#] -- [Gm - D#maj7] -- [F] X2 [Cm7] -- [D#]
GmEvael, my F#mdream has been so alive and this D#plague has Cmcleansed this world for us.
Gm So please, F#m reD#lease me now. Cm
A2: Gm (D#maj7) Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Sink deeper to your loneliness and you will lead her to your grave. Gm add9 F#m (F#sus2) F#m She's lost in gloomy light, still trying to hold her flame. Gm add9 F#m (F#sus2) F#m You're losing the sunsets and you will never get them back. Gm add9 Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m This life you spend in loneliness is forever in shades of black. B2: Cm D# Gm F#m D# Cm Gm F#m
D# Was it a weak sound on mCmy door that woke me up Gm or the trees sheltering F#mme from the night?
D# I kept my eyes closed but Cmstill felt the light, Gm and the room was F#mfilled by butterflies.
C2: Cm
I Gmrose with my heart G#beating. Cm For the weak hope of the midnight's hour I prayed
and opened my door to the Gmwinter G#night. CmAnd she fell... She fell to my arms.
In tears I carried her Gmand G#laid Cm her down to sleep. Her eyes
frozen from the thousand Gmnights aG#lone. CmShe trembled and whispered:
A3: (silence) D "I was lost in the woods.
And the Csus2trees kept me away from Csus2you. GmFor I brought the Dplague with them.
Csus2 With the butterflies...&qCsus2uot; B3:
Am Hush now and let it Fgo. Csus4 C Csus4 CloseC your eyes now.
Csus4 C Csus4 C
Am And we drift awFay, toCgether away from the pain. Am Deep in this Fsheltering night, to a Cforgiving dream.
Am Until one minute past Fmidnight, the room Cwas filled. C Filled only with butterflies...
