        e|-----------------| * Proceeds Riff 1 in Chorus- *
        B|-----------------|
        G|-----------------| Note it, as song/shown,
        D|-----5-----5---5-| or just quick strum G chord
        A|---5-----5-------| - 8 short downstrokes, often only on E string,
        E|-3-----3-----3---|   actually sounds deeper and more eerie/cool
           1 &amp; 2 &amp; 3 &amp; 4 &amp;     to me.

Em                            |Am                          |

Em                            |Am                          |

[VERSE 2]

Em                               |Am                            |
                         And they paid, I cry and cry for

you. Ghosts that haunt you with their sorrow I cried 'cause you were
Em                               |Am                            |
doomed. Praying to the wound that swallows all that's cold and

Em                             |
     and gratitude?       They
Am            D                |
run  to  the  pines.      It’s
Em             D/F#               |
black in here, blot out the sun and
Am            D                |
run  to  the  pines.      Our
C             Em               |
misery  runs  wild and free. And,
Am            D                |
I... ... ...  knew        the
C             Em               |(Riff 1)*
fire and  the ashes  of  his graves.
