As it fades Chorus: G I will shield you from the darkness Em When the walls around us quake Bm I will hold back all the monsters F# Until my bones begin to break G When I've lost I'll have to leave you Em And the tears, they'll fall like rain Bm If I'm taken by the shadows D I will spare you from the pain Bm G Em F# Verse: Bm G Cry a requiem for sunlight Em Hide away now from the dark F# To me the angered deep is calling Tearing me apart Bm G Somehow the whispers do command me Em When the abyss has taken hold F# Now carry on in glory When I grow cold Chorus: G I will shield you from the darkness Em When the walls around us quake Bm I will hold back all the monsters F# Until my bones begin to break G When I've lost I'll have to leave you Em And the tears, they'll fall like rain Bm If I'm taken by the shadows D I will spare you from the pain G Em Bm F# Bm Bm Em F# Bm Bm Em F# Bridge: Bm Bm Foolishly I left the darkness creeping Em In this restless ruin my soul is bleeding I confess to you the dark F# Has taken me prisoner Bm Bm I am corrupt beyond any rescue Em I've forsaken my vow to protect you Oh, end these horrors F# Face the father of the sinister G If the fight's over Em I will sacrifice my mind Bm Just to know you'll still be breathing F# When the years have been unkind G So continue on without me Em Guard my body and my flame Bm Keep a watch over the wasteland F# When the world forgets my name N.C. Chorus: G I will shield you from the darkness Em When the walls around us quake Bm I will hold back all the monsters F# Until my bones begin to break G When I've lost I'll have to leave you Em And the tears, they'll fall like rain Bm If I'm taken by the shadows D I will spare you from the pain G Em Bm F# G Em Bm F# Outro: Bm G Em e|--------------------------------|-------------------------------|--------------------------------| B|----3-----2-----3-----2---------|----------0-----------0----0-3-|--------------------------------| G|--------------------------------|----2---2-------2---2----2-----|--------------------------------| D|--4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----|--0-----------0----------------|----5-----4-----5-----4-----2-0-| A|2-----2-----2-----2-----2---2-0-|-------------------------------|--7-----7-----7-----7-----2-----| E|--------------------------------|3-----3-----3-----3----3-------|0-----0-----0-----0-----0-------| F# e|--------------------------------| B|--3-----2-----3-----2-----------| G|----------------------------4-3-| (x2) D|------4-----------4-------4-----| A|4-----------4-------------------| E|----2-----------2-------2-------|
