Intro
Strum the chords as follows, one bar each for the first two chords in each line, then
bars for the last chord in each line.
Bb C G#
Bb C Eb

Bb C Eb

Bb G# C4 (repeat this chord for 3 bars)

Verses:
Note that the strumming pattern from above continues the same exact way, i.e. the G# and
chords are strummed for two bars.
C4 Bb
And when the dawn begins to creep,
C
Sunlight finds you in a heap,
G#
And how you wish that you could sleep,
Bb
Forget the lies that you’ve been told,
C
Think you’re setting free your soul,
Eb
But you’re really getting old.
Bb
You’ve dreamt of divin’ in the sea,
C
Your outstretched hand in front of me,
G#
And how you wished that you could breathe.
Bb
In the grip of ecstasy,
C
When the shadows follow me,
Eb
And the night won’t set you free.
Bb
You wish someone could love you less,
G# (this is just one bar)
Longing for that one caress,
C4
I see you sink under Duress.
Outro
Play the C4 chord for three bars, then in this version of the song, Adam sings some
lyrics over the C4 chord, I am not 100% sure, but I believe that they go like this:
Don’t let me hear your safe life
takin’ you over, Angel
On “Angel” it switches to the Bb chord, and Adam plays the entire into section again to
the song, finishing on the C4 chord.
