version 2
Piano intro:
The second D in this scale is an ocative higher than the first D.
D (D) D A D G D F D E D F D F E C D
The band kicks in once and awhile with a Dm
Dm Am/Dm Dm Am/Dm
An offering of reasons. We put them all in play.
Dm Am/Dm Dm Am/Dm
A covering of treasons. That one by one we let slip away.
(Bridge)
Gm Dm Gm Dm
A solitary dancer. So lost upon her stage.
(Chorus)
Bb C Dm C Bb
I have seen you on the Edge of Dawn
C Dm C Bb
Felt you here before you were born
C Dm C Bb
Balanced your dreams upon the Edge of Thorns
Dm
But I don't think about you any-more.
(Verse 2)
A study made from winter. Of summers long ago.
And dreams that use to glitter safely now hidden under snow.
(Bridge 2)
And so we end the chapter. And let the stage lights fade.
(Repeat chorus)
Guitar riff: D A G F E E F E D (8x)
This is the pattern behind the first solo: C Am C Dm (4x)
Then it goes back to Dm for the bass riff. When the drums kick in the notes
notes are:
D E F E (if you want to play chords instead use Dm Em F Em )
Coming out of the solo the guitar and bass play:
A G F E (3x) The fourth pattern is: A G F E A (Then Dm)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repeat the chorus and then go back into the Dm Am/Dm pattern used
for the verses. Zach sings over this pattern:
