Northern Star Hole
i've seen so many tabs of this song, and *none* of them were correct. here's a better version; i'm not going to say it's all correct, but it's closer than most.
the following chords are used in this song:
Am 002210
Em 022000
C 032010
D x00232
F# xx3211
[intro]
E|---------------------------------- B|---------------------------------- G|---------------------------------- D|-----3--------2--------6------7--- A|---3--------3--------7------7----- E|-1------1-0------0-0------5------- E|---------------------------0--0--- B|-----1--------1--------0---1--1--- G|---0--------0--------1-----2--2--- D|-3------3-2------2-2-------2--2--- A|---------------------------0--0--- E|---------------------------0--0---
then strum Em
[verse]
[Am] [Em] [Am] [Em] [Am] [Em]
[Am] [C] [Em]
[Am] [D]
[Em] [Em/F#]
[Am] [D] [C] [Em]
[Am] [D] [C] [Em]
just before the chorus, play this:
E|---------------------------------- B|---------------------------------- G|---------------------------------- D|-----3--------2--------6------7--- A|---3--------3--------7------7----- E|-1------1-0------0-0------5-------
[cborus]
**** this is the part that most tabs mess up. the chorus is *not* the same as the intro; if you listen carefully to the song it is slightly different.
E|----------------------------------------------------- B|----------------------------------------------------- G|----------------------------------------------------- D|-----5------5----5------3--------2--------6------7--- A|---5------5-----------3--------3--------7------7----- E|-3------3------3----1------1-0------0-0------5------- x5 E|---------------------------0--0--- B|-----1--------1--------0---1--1--- G|---0--------0--------1-----2--2--- D|-3------3-2------2-2-------2--2--- A|---------------------------0--0--- E|---------------------------0--0---
then strum Em
[repeat verse]
[repeat cborus]

[lyrics]
*verse 1*
and i cry and no one can hear
inhale
the blinded eyes that see
the chaos
bring the pitiful to me
even though i'm wide-awake, i will
and blackest night and i wait for you
it's cold in here there's no one left
and i wait for you
and nothing stops it happening
and i knew i'd cherish all my misery alone
*chorus 1*
and i wait staring at the northern star
i'm afraid it won't lead me anywhere
he's so cold, he will ruin the world tonight
all the angels kneel into the northern lights
kneel into the frozen lights
*verse 2*
and they paid, i cry and cry for you
ghosts that haunt you with their sorrow
i cried 'cause you were doomed
praying to the wound that swallows
all that's cold and cruel
can you see the trees, charity and gratitude
they run to the pines
it's black in here, blot out the sun
and run to the pines
our misery runs wild and free
and i knew the fire and the ashes of his grace
*chorus 2*
and i wait staring at the northern star
i'm afraid it won't lead you very far
he's so cold, he will win the world tonight
all the angels kneel into the frozen lights
feel their hearts they're cold and white
*bridge*
and i want you
and blessed are the broken
and i beg you
no loneliness, no misery is with you
oh tear his heart out cold as ice it's mine
and i wait praying to the northern star
i'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere
he's so cold, raining on the world tonight
all the angels kneeling to the northern lights
and i pray begging to the northern star
i'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere
he's so cold, he will rule the world tonight
all the angels kneeling to the northern lights
kneeling to the frozen lights
feel their hearts they're cold as ice
