Breath On a Window Chords & Lyrics by Alice In Chains
Breath On a Window
guitar chords lyrics
Tuning half step down
However, all chords listed are with respect to their position in standard tuning.
Does that make sense? For example, I have E for the first chord.
Technically, it would be an Eb because of the tuning, but the shape is that
of an E in standard tuning...I think anyone that finds this tab should be
able to play the song.
Intro: E
Verse 1:
E
Mending fence along the road
G D E
Barely holding together
E
Mapless zone the road signs holed
G D E
Keep ahead of the weather
E
Long past time to close dead eyes
G D E
Find a break in the highway
E
Out here I'm invisible
G D E
Very few going my way
*Chorus:
A E A E
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
A C G E
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
Verse 2:
E
Ghost town strip of misery
G D E
I ain't feeling no better
E
Road kill heart inside of me
G D E
Follow it to the letter
E
Sundown brings a welcome change
G D E
Everything that's hiding
E
More at home in landscapes strange
G D E
Are you selling I'm buying
*Chorus:
A E A E
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
A C G E
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
A E A E
Cigarette burn holes outline an old soul
A C G
Connect the dot scribbling
E
And you would never know
Bridge?: F# A A# (use power chords)
F# A A# F# A A#
Failed to head the signal
F# A A# F# A A#
Thought you got through just in time (it was hard to line these up
F# A A# F# A A# exactly with the lyrics...so
Crashing hard upon your ego I didn't)
F# A A# F# A A#
Penetrated from the side
F# A A#
Outro:
D F# E Bm
I'd let you go, but you're always in the way
D F# C# E
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday
D F# E Bm
I'd love to go, but you're always in the way
D F# C# E
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday.
Fade Out:
D F# E Bm
D F# C# E
* For the first two A chords, you can try power chords and sliding
them up a half step and back twice before playing the E to sound like
the record. The last A you can do one half step slide and then go to
the C.

I figured this out on an acoustic...sometime I have my electric out
I'll work on the outro solo.
