(Then repeat the intro once instead of twice, then into the 2nd verse, chords as
put the chords down too though because there are so many I can never remember them)

I praise you [A#/G]anyway [F#]always
(Then into the really long bit. It's the same chord progression over and over, but each
moving up in semitones)

[B]Hold his mouth and [A#]stop him breathing [C#]over and [E]out[G#m] [C#]
(The outro plays those final three chords over and over, the time signature changes,
just a case of playing it over and over and a pattern starts emerging)
Such an epic tune, hope you enjoy it.
