Crushed to Dust Green Carnation
I was astonished when I discovered no Green Carnation tabs on here,
so I have decided to start tabbing as many of their songs as I can.
If you are interested in helping me tab any GC songs, or if you
would like to request a song for me to tab, send an e-mail to
psychic.hearts@hotmail.com.
Any comments, corrections, etc. are also welcome.

He took a long look in the mirror, shook his head
Felt the arms of God letting go
Couldn't breathe, it had to stop
Voices screaming out in[A5]side of him... in[B5]side of him[/D5]

The world was turning black, cold, cruel and vicious
Time was knocking on a [A5]closing door... [B5]wanting [/D5] more
(Repeat Verse riff four times, into chorus)
Chorus 1 (0:57):
[E5]Playing pieces of a [D5]life-long play in which the [C5]starring actor
makes the [B5]world go around inside his [E5]head
Then suddenly, the [D5]act is ending. The [C5]lights are dimming
and the [D5]music's playing
(Note: I'm not completely sure if the following complete fill
is played under the chorus chords, or just certain
sections of it. Feel free to play whatever you want)
((Played twice))

There was a woman lying on the floor; blueish, pale
Staring a hole through his soul
There was blood underneath
The shotgun lying [A5]next to her... [B5]next to her[/D5]
