Bob Mould - The Descent
-----------------------
Nice and simple song, not 100% sure if correct, just a rough draft -
you can use powerchords only as well, maybe mix it up a little...
Intro:
------
A F#m D (4x)
Verse:
------
C#m D
I started out so starry-eyed
A F#m D (2x)
Full of hope and wonder
C#m D
And I wore flowers in my hair
A F#m D (2x)
Not aware I'd been defiled
Bridge:
-------
E D E D
(Every time I see you) I know it's going down
E D E D
(How can I believe you?) Karma comes around
Chorus:
-------
A Bm D
I know this ride, you must be there by my side
A Bm D
You going down, I must be descending
(play Intro and Verse like before)
I didn't want to play the song
That gave people so much hope
I turned my back and turned away
Here's the rope that made me choke
(Every time I see you) I know it's going down
(How can I believe you?) Karma comes around
D A Bm (repeat)
You can see it in my eyes
You can read it on my face
You can hear it as I cry
God, I hope it's not too late
Can I try to make it up to you somehow?
Can I try to make it up to you somehow?
Solo-Part:
----------
F#m E Bm D (2x)
D A Bm
You can see it in my eyes
D
You can read it on my face
A Bm
You can hear it as I cry
D A
God, I hope it's not too late
Bm D A
Can I try to make it up to you somehow?
Bm A F#m (E) D
Can I try to make it up to you somehow?
A Bm
Now my race is finally run
D
And as I tumble to the sun
A Bm
All these dreams I can't achieve
A F#m (E) D
Brought me crashing to my knees
My descent has now begun
All the music left undone
My world, it is descending
(play D A Bm A F#m (E) D until the end, end on D)
