Sheet of Night
From the upcoming album "Economy"
Tabbed by: Chad Miller
John Mark picks the verse chords with his fingers to give it a different
sound. Once the album comes out I'll figure out the lead parts. I'm also
deciphering the lyrics from a couple of live recordings, so those may
change as well.
Capo 7
Verse 1
F C
The devil's dealing dirty
Em Am F - C F - C
in broken hearts and counterfeit currency
F C
Where the living isn't easy
Em Am F - C F - C
where your hearts regret can tax the air you breathe
Pre-Chorus
F G Am
Like diamonds we shine up against a sheet of night
C
the jet black sheet of night
F G Am
We overtake the city scapes, we scale the heights
C F
where we break but we don't die
Chorus
C G
Whoa-oh, we've got a blood, we've got a love that'll brave the flood
F G
Whoa-oh, we've got a blood, we've got a love that'll brave
Verse 2
the cold will leave you guilty
and the wind will shake you like a tambourine
Where the dogs will leave you hungry
and your superiors will tax the blood you bleed
Pre-chorus, Chorus x2
Bridge
Am F
Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh (We've got a blood)
G Em
Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh (that'll brave the flood)
