Forgiven
Intro - Piano
[Verse 1:]
Eb F#
Oh yes, I know this tension that you speak of
Ab B Eb
We're in the palm of a hand making a fist
Eb F#
It'd be best for one of us to speak up
Ab B Eb
But we prefer to pretend it does not exist
[Pre-Chorus:]
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
Eb/D
To fail and fail again
[Chorus:]
Eb Ab
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
Cm Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
Eb Ab
And I know that I have been forgiven
Cm Bb
And I just hope you can forgive me too
[Verse 2:]
Eb
So don't you dare blame me for
Prying open the door
F#
That's unleashed the bitterness
That's here in the midst of this
Ab B Eb
Sometimes we live for no one but ourselves
And what we've been striving for
Has turned into nothing more
F#
Than bodies limp on the floor
Victims of falling short
Ab B Eb
We kiss goodbye the cheek of our true love
[Pre-Chorus 2:]
(strum on the off beat until D#)
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
Eb/D
To fail and fail again
[Chorus:]
Eb Ab
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
Cm Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
Ab Ab
And I know that I have been forgiven
Cm Bb
And I just hope you can forgive me too
Bridge - (same as verse) Eb F# Ab B Eb
[Pre-Chorus:]
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
Eb/D
To fail and fail again
[Chorus:]
Eb Ab
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
Cm Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
Eb Ab
And I know that I have been forgiven
Cm Ab
And I just hope you can forgive me too
Outro - Eb F# Ab B Eb (same as verse)
Then - Eb F# Ab and end on Eb

closely to hear it, and also at this part it sounds like the verse but the
guitar is not playing the riff from the verse)

Oh yes, I know this tension that you speak of
We're in the palm of a hand making a fist
It'd be best for one of us to speak up
But we prefer to pretend it does not exist
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
To see that you've been aptly damned
To fail and fail again
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
And I know that I have been forgiven
And I just hope you can forgive me too
So don't you dare blame me for
Prying open the door
That's unleashed the bitterness
Thats here in the midst of this
Sometimes we live for no one but ourselves
And what we've been striving for
Has turned into nothing more
Than bodies limp on the floor
Victims of falling short
We kiss goodbye the cheek of our true love
------------------
version 3
Tuning: Standard
It's played in the intro, first and second verses,
interlude, and outro. I've just tabbed out the intro, but the same notes are used for the
other instances the piano comes in.
