Breathe Depeche Mode
"Breathe" from Exciter (2001)
The first part of theverse has two riffs that are repeated, an Am and a Gm riff:
Am(V) Gm
e|-------5--------------3--------------------------------------------------- B|-----5---8-7b-------3---6-5b---------------------------------------------- G|---5--------------3------------------------------------------------------- D|-7--------------5--------------------------------------------------------- A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The second part of the verse uses a Fm riff and a different Am riff:
[Am] [Fm]
e|-------0-----------1------------------------------------------------------ B|-----1-----------1-------------------------------------------------------- G|---2-----------1---------------------------------------------------------- D|-2-----------3----------------------------------------------------------- A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strum Am and Fm chords on the bridge:
[Am] [Fm]
e|---0-----1---------------------------------------------------------------- B|---1-----1---------------------------------------------------------------- G|---2-----1---------------------------------------------------------------- D|---2-----3---------------------------------------------------------------- A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(note: try vibratin' the whole Fm chord to get the cool little effect in some places on CD)
The outro is like this x2
e|-------0-------0---------------1-------1---------------------------------- B|-----1---1---3---3-1---------1---1---3---3-1------------------------------ G|---2-------2---------2-----1-------1---------1---------------------------- D|-2---------------------2-3---------------------3-------------------------- A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
and then this once
e|-------0-------0---------------1------------------------------------------ B|-----1---1---3---3-1---------1-------------------------------------------- G|---2-------1---------2-----1---------------------------------------------- D|-2---------------------2-3------------------------------------------------ A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
and then repeat the whole outro thing again and again to fade. So some idea of timings:
Intro: Am(V)
Verse 1:
I heard a rumour
Am(V)
They travel far
You know what it's like
The way people ar[Gm]e
They talk and they talk
Am(V)
Though they don't understand
They'll whisper and whisper
And lie on demand[Gm]
Verse 1.5
Please tell me now
I want to know
I have to hear it from your lips
Say it's not s[Am]o[Fm]
Verse 2
(same as last verse)
I heard it on Monday
And I laughed a while
I heard it on Tuesday
I managed to smile
I heard it on Wednesday
My patience was tried
I heard it on Thursday
And I hurt inside
I want to know
The depths of your mind
Tell me this whole thing is madness
And we're doing fine
(Bridge - strum here)
[Fm]Put your little hand in [Am]mine
And believe in love
[Fm]Put your head on my [Am]chest
And [Am]breathe love
[Fm]Breathe love
[Fm]Breathe love
[Fm]Breathe love
[Am] [Fm] [Am]
Verse 3 (a lil different):
Am(V)
I heard it from Peter
Am(V)
Who heard it from Paul
Who heard it from someo[Gm]ne
I don't know at al[Gm]l
Am(V)
I heard it from Mary
Am(V)
Who heard it from Ruth
Who swore on the bib[Gm]le
She's telling the tru[Gm]th
Am(V)
I heard it from Simon
Am(V)
Who heard it from James
Confirming with Sar[Gm]ah
That I was to bla[Gm]me
Am(V)
I heard it from Joseph
Am(V)
Who heard it from John
Who said with convicti[Gm]on
That all hope was go[Gm]ne
Verse 3.5:
So I need to know
Your alibis
I need to hear that you love me
Before you say goodb[Am]ye[Fm]
Before you say goodb[Am]ye[Fm]
Before you say goodb[Am]ye[Fm]
Outro
Before you say goodbye
