"Repetition" by Purity Ring
from "Another Eternity"
tab by aerothopter
I just mostly figured this out. There are a couple quick chord changes
or subtleties in the later verses and choruses, but this sounds just fine.
I like to strum once then palm mute--this is a pretty minimal arrangement.
This is in the original key. I play this with a capo on 3,
which lets me play the Gm like this: 022003 or 022033
[Intro]
(Tacit, but implied chords are same as verse)
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray

[Verse 1]
EbBb
Tell me that you wanna move me 'round like that
Ab
I will watch your lips curve in a smooth combat
EbBb
Make your way in through my tears and I'll relax
Ab
If you're the truest one, I'm gonna make you a season
[Verse 2]
EbBb
Climb up in my rattling spine and I'll contract
Ab
Tell me I'm the only one and I'll move back
EbBb
If you see your daydreams in me, they'll not lack
Ab
What's been weighted in me, I'll make you quake with reason
[Chorus] x2
CmBb or GmAb
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
CmBb or GmAb
Hope it isn't repetition, though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
[Verse 3]
EbBb
I can feel your knees sinking into the bed
Ab
Searching in my dark eyes to break what's been said
EbBb
There?s a wake of grace, hunting your soreness down
Ab
There's a light in my skin that's been dimmed
[Verse 4]
EbBb
I'mma dig you up and give you what I took
Ab
Pull you up and tuck you in and make you look
EbBb
I'mma smooth your shoulders down and calm what's shook
Ab
It was all forlorn, if only for a season
[Chorus] x2
[Post-Chorus]
(You can also use Eb/Bb/Ab or Cm/Em/Ab throughout)
EbEm
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Ab
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
CmEm
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Ab
Hey, hey, pray
[Interlude]
