Apology
by Alesana
Drop G# (7 string)
Tuning: { G# | D# | G# | Db | F# | A# | D# }
P.S.
I've tried to line up the chords with the screaming in the pre-chorus, but it's tricky.
I can barely make out what they're saying.
I don't know the names of the sections. It's like the song has three choruses
and a verse which only happens once. Weird.
Anyway, it's all basic chords, but the structuring and rhythm
is what's important to getting this right.
F G Am
Sweat drips in my eyes
F G Am
Screams of lust we cry
F G Am
Tonight, you are, everything
Am F
You're everything... You're everything to me
G Am
No more as I wake
G F
From this perfect dream...
G Am
I'll escape from Eden's walls
G F
Can I not stay and live this lie?
G Am
For I must think only of myself
F G
And to think that you will not be scared
Am G F
Or surprised I severed all these ties
G Am
This is the end
Am G Em
I'll lose myself in anguish for tonight
E F
Help me get over you
F Am F
I feel so numb to see this bitter end...
Am F
(It has come to this...) End of beautiful illusions

(...One last kiss) To save our past now

This is the end
