This one matches, if you want to play along, with the original song. I know he plays
this song differently sometimes, but yeah.
The Am/Em chord is played with the first finger on the first fret of the B string. The
second finger on the second fret of the A string and the 3rd finger on the second fret of
the D string.
Capo on 7th fret
[Intro]
F C
ooooo ooooo
F C
ooooo ooooo
[Verse]
Am G C F
So I threw your letter into the flame
G C F
And watched the fire regain
Am G C F
And these words have done nothing for you
G C F
As I did not read them through
G C F
Now turned to ash in the flume
[Pre-Chorus]
F
And colors are dull
C G
As the feeling of the cold
F
And memories fall
C G
As the fire is getting old
F
Oh and I once more am now
(pluck the A string first and then the G and B strings together for these chords)
[Chorus]
C Am Am/Em
Don’t you fret I’ll find my way
F C Am G
Carefully walking from the devil’s plane
C Am Am/Em
And I know why you did not follow me
F C G C
Pride swallowed me then led me astray
[Post-Chorus]
F C
ooooo ooooo
F C
ooooh ooooo
[Verse]
Am G C F
And now the dark in me has now seen the day
G C F
Oh my chill has now lost its way
Am G C F
And these hands that once had helped me to pray
G C F
They are limp in all their dismay
G C F
Oh they fall in their disarray
[Pre-Chorus]
F
And colors are dull
C G
As the feeling of the cold
F
And memories fall
C G
As the fire is getting old
F
Oh and I once more am now
(Same plucking as before)
[Chorus]
C Am Am/Em
Oh don’t you fret I’ll find my way
F C Am G
Carefully walking from the devil’s plane
C Am Am/Em
And I know why you did not follow me
F C G C
Pride swallowed me then led me astray
