[Intro tab:]
(its all on the high e string, so i just typed up that one string)
[Verse:]
Em
Tonight I'm so alone
C
This sorrow takes a hold
G
Don't leave me here so cold
D
(Never want to be so cold)
Em
Your touch used to be so kind
C
Your touch used to give me life
G
I've waited all this time,
D
I've wasted so much time
[Pre-Chorus:]
C D
Don't leave me alone
C
Cause I barely see at all
D G
Don't leave me alone, I'm
[Chorus:]
C
Falling in the black
G
Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Em D
Can you hear me?
C
Falling in the black
G
Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G Em D
Falling inside the black
C G Em D
Falling inside, falling inside the black
[Verse:]
Em
You were my source of strength
C
I've traded everything
G
That I love for this one thing
D
(Stranded in the offering)
Em
Don't leave me here like this
C
Can't hear me scream from the abyss
G D
And now I wish for you my desire
[Pre-Chorus:]
C D
Don't leave me alone
C
Cause I barely see at all
D G
Don't leave me alone, I'm
[Chorus:]

Falling in the black

Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Em D
Can you hear me?
C
Falling in the black
G
Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G Em D
Falling inside the black
C G Em(2xh) Em(2xh)
Em(2xh) Em(2xh)
Falling inside, falling inside ---the black, -----black, -----black, -----black
(I usually just play the verse chords here... sooo.... Em, C, G, D and I usually
play it twice, very loudly to emphasize the power that i cant really tab on an acoustic
guitar - and on the last D, i hold it out an extra measure and add in a suspension, so
it's more like a Dsus2 chord :D )
[Chorus:]
C
Falling in the black
G
Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Em D
Can you hear me?
C
Falling in the black
G
Slipping through the cracks
Em D
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
C G (this would be where i put Em, but this line merges with the next one)
Falling inside the black
Em D
Can you hear me?
C G (same as above)
Falling inside the black
Em D
Can you hear me?
C G (yes, it just keeps repeating...)
Falling inside the black
Em D
Can you hear me?
C
Falling inside
G Em D
Falling inside, falling inside
Em
The black!
