Rocky Votolato Death-Right
What a beautiful song, couldn’t find it tabbed anywhere so did my best to figure
it out. Capo at 4.
This song is mostly finger picked. When playing the Am hammer on the b string
Verse 1:
Am Em Am Em
you'll die young if you live so carefully / there are risks you must take to pay this world
Am Em G Am
I know it would never be that easy / I have not yet earned the right to die
Am Em Am Em
I want you to hear me screaming / I want you to notice what goes on
Am Em G Am
temptation and evil demons crawling the earth hiding in every corner
Verse 2:
I've seen men crippled in anger / the sun burns alive in silence
I've seen men wallow in fear / inaction acts as a blade across the throat
I'll learn how to make decisions / I'll stick by my word - won't let you down
I swear by the grave that's calling / nothing will stop me from doing what must be done
Chorus:
C G Am C G Am
something here is still innocent / It doesn't matter if you decide not to believe it
C G Em F
There are still places where the magic can breathe
C G Am Em
I want to breathe it in I want to lay down and never leave
Verse 3: (Palm Mute)
we're stalking the ancient mariner / through waters he takes his lonely course
once powerful once beautiful / extinction lingering these things are no more
I love you I'll never leave you / though I may be gone for years on end
I will never be separate / lovers through the lives before and after
Chorus:
something here is still innocent / It doesn't matter if you decide not to believe it
There are still places where the magic can breathe
I want to breathe it in I want to lay down and never leave
