"Loss" By John Frusciante
from "The Will To Death"

->Intro:

 A  E  Cis  Cis7  fis          4x

->Verse:

A                          E
 We make the music that divides you
 Cis        Cis7               fis
It's handed down as a thing to cry to

A                               E
 And all my wars they treat you kindly
 Cis            Cis7                fis
There's nothing more important that I see

A                              E
 There was a time when all was empty
Cis      Cis7         fis
 Unorganized a clog a death scene

A                                E
 Things opened up and there's so many
Cis       Cis7          fis
 Paths to walk ports of entry


->Chorus:

E            fis
Now that I'm gone
E            fis
Now that I'm long gone
     E                   fis
This minute has come and gone
        b          fis             A   E
I never said to do anything but forget me
E          fis
I can't be lost
E                            fis
I've learned everything from loss
          E                        fis
For what's gained there's an inner cost
b      fis       A    E
I wont pay it I never would

->Verse:

We met the seasons back in Long Town
There was a hint of sadness going round
We met the brothers who drove arrows
And shot assumptions wide and narrow
I know I mean what I'm forgetting
We give for everything we're getting
A lot that hasn't been put away
It's building up for that fateful someday

->Chorus:

Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm long gone
This minute has come and gone
I never said to do anything but forget me
When it seems I'm around
Check again what's up and what's down
Many silences make a sound
I'm before the equation and I'm the answer

->Bridge and solo:

(short) (short) (long) (long) (short) (short)
   A       E      b      A       E       D


*Note: I put the chords above the words to give an example when John strum   it in the song.
       You can hear that he changes chords when he likes to, so it's really PITA to write it
       all down. You'll get it right eventually.
       At bridge and solo section, in brackets are duration of chords
