This is one of my first attempts at chords. The lyrics might be kind of off! This
song is awesome and I couldn t find any tabs for it so I thought I d try my hand at it. Enjoy!
Capo 1
Standard Tuning
Deep deep down under mountains I have heard them call my name
Will play their little game and tell them
Deep deep down I ve been waiting for the fighting to begin
Hold my hands up
Deep sleep now, under skies of pressing dark upon my dress
Watch it turn from white to red under the bone clean moon
I am clinging to this burning shaking bed
Must I hold my hands up
My bloody hands up
Chorus:
Mercy, Mercy I ve been caught
Lying with my darkest thought
They grab my wings and pin me to the wall
Light please try to hold your ground
Lift me up before I drown
The din creeps neath my skin
And I can t hear no goodness speak
From the neighboring town
There s a boy who comes to sing upon our street
I watch him from the window thinking deep deep down
He d be richer if he just became a thief
Instead he holds his hands out
I walk down to the river
Stand and shiver in the wind
Throw stones and watch them sink into the icy blue
Let it rise about my ankles
I don t want this darkness
But the sun just falls from the sky
Chorus again x 2
