Hello there, sorry if there's a couple of mistakes in the lyrics, but the chords are all good.
The chords with a dash (F' G') are the places I play it as a bar chord because I think
it sounds better, but it doesn't really matter and its up to you. Enjoy.
Capo 1
Standard Tuning
C G
You've made your decision now get up and leave
F' G' C
The familiar sting of the woodcutters swing to the tree
C G
I’ll fall in the forest to elbows and knees.
F' G' C
And it won't make a sound since there's no one around here to see
F' C
I was prepared to love you
F' C G
And never expect anything of you
C G
If a spirit has left you baby don't lie to yourself
F' G' C
Put them old records on and admit that it's gone somewhere else
C G
Just because we're beasts of blame by nature doesn't mean that you should carry it again
F' G' C
It's a question of needs, and not rosary beads, in the end
F' C
I was prepared to love you
F' C
And never expect anything of you
F'
But there's no patron saint of silent restraint
C G F
There ain't no sword in our lake
C
Just a funeral wake
Am C
You were the coldest star in the sky
F C
Only I couldn't see it I was blind
Am C
In come the black night calling your name since you were born
F' G' C
Only I couldn't hear it I was empty as a drum
F' C
I was prepared to love you
F' C
And never expect anything of you
F'
But there no patron saint of silent restraint
C G F
There ain't no sword in our lake
C G F
There ain't no sword in our lake
C G F
There ain't no sword in our lake
C
Just a funeral wake.
Awesome tab! After some of the C chords in this song, (when you listen you can hear it) I like to pull my finger off of the first fret of the B string to play a Cmaj7.
