Silhouettes Smile Empty Soul
I am sure this song is originally on an alternate tuning like Drop D-flat (I've
seen Smile Empty Soul live and I'm pretty sure of this), but my version sounds the
same along side the CD or youtube video of them playing. Enjoy!
Intro F#m/E/B
[F#m]Silhouet[E]tes above the c[B]radle hold me down
[F#m]They won't l[E]et me go the w[B]rong way
[F#m]My mother t[E]aught me all the f[B]ables, told me how
[F#m]In the e[E]nd all the si[B]nners have to pay
But...
[D]I don't wanna [E]live like my [F#m]mother[C#]
I don't wanna [D]let [E]fear [F#m]rule my l[C#]ife
And [D]i don't wanna [E]live like my [F#m]father[C#]
I don't wanna [D]give [E]up b[F#m]efore i di[C#]e
[F#m]He worked so h[E]ard his bones are b[B]reaking
He wore them down [F#m]but long ag[E]o he lost the f[B]eeling
[F#m]His good in[E]tentions leave me s[B]haking, show me how
[F#m]I don't ev[E]er want to e[B]nd up like he did
And...
[D]I don't wanna [E]live like my [F#m]mother[C#]
I don't wanna [D]let [E]fear [F#m]rule my l[C#]ife
And [D]i don't wanna [E]live like my [F#m]father[C#]
I don't wanna [D]give [E]up b[F#m]efore i di[C#]e
[F#m]When i have k[E]ids
[B]I won't put any chains [F#m]on their w[E]rists, i won't[B]
[F#m]I'll tell them t[E]his t[B]here's nothing in this world
That [F#m]you can't b[E]e if you w[B]ant it enough
And...
Hold your B chord you just played for dramatic fade out here, then hit the 4th
fret of the b string and bend that note for the sound just before the chorus hits again.
