Chords with lyrics

Evael 10:00 - Swallow the Sun
			 (Part III of "Plague of Butterflies")
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just my intuition of the basic chord structure. If you're playing it with a guitar,
I suggest using some C-tuning (like CGCFAD), so that you can play that
C majorC minor as an open chord. It sounds great that way, especially with an acoustic
guitar. Hope you like the tab!

Intro:

[Cm7Cm7] -- [D#D#] -- [G minorGm - D#Maj7D#maj7] -- [FF]

[Cm7Cm7] -- [D#D#]

A1:

F# minorF#m
Cold, oh so cold is this air that the night brought.

F# minorF#m
Silent, too quiet are the woods in the eve of this night.

F# minorF#m
Once     again   I lit the  candle on my window.

F# minorF#m
And... And waited.       Waited   for the sleep...

B1:
[Cm7Cm7] -- [D#D#] -- [G minorGm - D#Maj7D#maj7] -- [FF]  X2

[Cm7Cm7] -- [D#D#]


F# minorF#m
Evael, my dream has been so alive and this

C minorCm
plague has cleansed this world for us.

F# minorF#m
  So please,

 C minorCm
release me now.

A2:

   F# minorF#m
Sink deeper to your loneliness and you will lead her to your grave.

   F# minorF#m
She's lost in gloomy light, still trying to hold her flame.

    F# minorF#m
You're losing the sunsets and you will never get them back.

   F# minorF#m
This life you spend in loneliness is forever in shades of black.

B2:

F# minorF#m

F# minorF#m

C minorCm
  Was it a weak sound on my door that woke me up

F# minorF#m
  or the trees sheltering me from the night?

C minorCm
  I kept my eyes closed but still felt the light,

F# minorF#m
  and the room was filled by butterflies.

C2:

C minorCm

 G#G#
I rose with my heart beating.

C minorCm
 For the weak hope of the midnight's hour I prayed

             G#G#
and opened my door to the winter night.

C minorCm
And she fell... She fell to my arms.

            G#G#
In tears I carried her and laid

C minorCm
  her down to sleep. Her eyes

             G#G#
frozen from the thousand nights alone.

C minorCm
She trembled and whispered:

A3:

(silence)     D MajorD
"I was lost in the woods.

    Csus2Csus2
And the trees kept me away from you.

D MajorD
For I brought the plague with them.

Csus2Csus2
   With the butterflies..."

B3:

FF
  Hush now and let it go.

C majorC
       Close your eyes now.

C majorC

C majorC
  And we drift away, together away from the pain.

C majorC
  Deep in this sheltering night, to a forgiving dream.

C majorC
  Until one minute past midnight, the room was filled.

C majorC
  Filled only with butterflies...

C majorC X4
