04/01/2013:
I really like this song and would like to be able to play it, so I started a tab
submission for it. Written below is what I can gather to the best of my ability, so I would
really appreciate your help in making this tab better. That said, I hope you have fun playing it!
Note: Lyric lines in asterisks (*) indicate lines which I am unsure of. Need help
especially with these!

Capo 2
Key of D
Verse chords: Am shape with alternating A note hammer-on
It would be helpful to listen to the video for the pattern
When I think of
fates worse than this
all I can think of
Is something you said
You said we were golden
bright like the sun
now I am stranded
knowing I'm not the one
Ocean of anger
flowing through me
bloodstained and broken
from what I've failed to see
Just like a snake charmer
you led me astray
living in distress
hoping help is on the way
Chorus
Dm Em
In the midst of the storm
Am G
searching for shelter
Dm Em
I came upon
Am G
one single feather
Dm Em
I held on and wished
Am G
for something better
Dm Em
Gracefully cursed
Am (repeat verse pattern)
I thirst
Attached to the soul
I'm dyed in the womb(*)
as I am in my blood
yet so vulnerable
But after I'm gone
once I finally leave
you will be left alone
two wolves in the field(*)
Chorus
Dm Em
In the midst of the storm
Am G
searching for shelter
Dm Em
I came upon
Am G
one single feather
Dm Em
I held on and wished
Am G
for something better
Dm Em
Gracefully cursed
Am (repeat verse pattern)
I thirst
