Verse:
D(1) D6 D(1) C6 C C6 C C6 C C6
Unsuspecting brother .... doesn't know what to do
Bb6 Bb G
When everything just falls to the ground...
(same again)
He runs to find some cover, he doesn't have a clue
That his friend will never be found.
Bb C Bb G
When he's informed, that he....
Chorus: [Over-drive/distortion]
F F F D F D#
Will never see the boy, will never see the boy,
Bb G
Will never see him open his eyes.
D F G
We'll never see the boy, we'll never see the boy
Bb G
We'll only hear his heavenly cries
Bb C Bb G F F F
Ooh yeah, ooh.
D A Bb G D(2) A Bb C
Ooh! Ooh!
After second chorus, the interlude ("While still you're
alive...") repeats:
D / A G F / / /
Chord progression before the song holds on C is
D / A G F E D C
After the power C which holds for
8 beats a D(2) is played and held for 8 beats.
The song finishes with an indecipherable sequence which seems to be just
C and D in no particular order. I just play this by repeating:
E-----------------------------------------------|
B---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------|
G---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------|
D---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------|
A-----------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------|
The same chord progression described above is played (a little quicker)
after this little interlude and the song finishes like this:
C / / / / / / D
Unsuspecting brother doesn't know what to do,
When everything just falls to the ground, ohh.
He runs to find some cover, he doesn't have a clue,
That his friend will never be found,
When he's informed, that he...
Will never see the boy,
Will never see the boy,
Never see him open his eyes,
Will never see the boy,
Never see the boy
You'll only hear his heavenly cries
ooh, yeah.
Thinking of the past, it's all over now.
Mother nature strikes once again.
It happened all so fast, my only question's how,
How could they let that building descend.
Ohh, yeah, ohhhh...
You will never see the boy,
You will never see the boy,
You will never see him open his eyes,
You will never see the boy,
Never see the boy,
You'll only hear his heavenly cries.
ooh, yeah.
Off to the new life, I live on death.
You're leaving me all through the night.
If he's born again, I need you to find,
Need you to find where he is.
