You Know My Name - Chris Cornell

Alright, I took the original song down a key, or at least I think it's a key...

Standard Tuning

Intro: Am F D x4

Verse 1:
Am                                         Fm
If you take a life do you know what you'll give?
                      C
Odds are, you won't like what it is.
Am                                             Fm
When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me?
                   C       E
By the merciless eyes of deceit?

F           E              Am  G       F#m
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights
F           E                Am G  F#m  F
But you yourself are nothing so divine
               E
Just next in line.

Chorus:
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F
The odds will betray you
           D
And I will replace you
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
             Am       F
It longs to kill you
                    D
Are you willing to die?

D
The coldest blood runs through my veins
Am F D
You know my name

Verse 2:
Am                                         Fm
If you come inside things will not be the same
           C
When you return to the night
Am
And if you think you've won
                   Fm
You never saw me change
              C              E
The game that we all been playing

F            E                   Am G   F#m  F
I've seen diamonds cut through harder men
             E
Than you yourself
           Am   G  F#m F
But if you must pretend
                   E
You may meet your end

Chorus
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F
The odds will betray you
              D
And I will replace you
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
            Am       F
It longs to kill you
                    D
Are you willing to die?

D
The coldest blood runs through my veins

Bridge:
F
Try to hide your hand
D
Forget how to feel (Forget how to feel)
F                         D
Life is gone with just a spin of the wheel (Spin of the wheel)

Chorus
Am                     F                    D
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
              Am         F
The odds will betray you
              D
And I will replace you
    Am               F                   D
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
            Am       F
It longs to kill you
                    D
Are you willing to die?

E
The coldest blood runs through my veins

You know my name (until End)

Am F D
