The Cascade

Beautifully atmospheric song by an incredible, underrated band.

Echoes, delays, reverberations, and other background noises made it somewhat difficult 

to write out.

Keep in mind this is just a basic chord tab with a few fills just for fun.

The chords are all correct but if you have anything better for the breakdown please let 

me know.

I believe it's played in Drop D or D standard, but this works well if you don't 

accentuate the higher strings.

Cheers:)

Well I hope, That you know, That you died, In my dream

         A             F#m            E                               D

We were both, In the grass, When the wind took you and put you in my past





          A                            D

So just breath(so just breath) hold it in and think of me

                 F#m                                    E

Just don't fall back (just don't fall back) So carelessly,

                    Bm                 D

when everything is forced to fall in place

            F#m                   E

Ill find my own, You'll find your own

   (A  Bm  F#m  D )>-2X-<(Intro Riff)

Embrace.

And the worst, thing of all, is that I, couldnt fall

        A             F#m               E            D

When i jumped, off those cliffs, hoping I, wouldn't live

And can I hold on? Can I hold on to you?

            E                F#m               D

And can we both die? If the wind is passing through

         A                                    E

So just hold it in, breath in, just think of me

                            F#m                               D

Don't fall back so carelessly, when everything is forced in place

                                    A                            E

I'll find my own, you'll find your own, and the worst part of it all

                         F#m                                     D

Was I could not seem to fall, when i jumped straight off those cliffs

                        F#m>>---Fade out

Hoping that, I wouldnt live
