Verse
Bm A F#m
Last night the smoke from the bonfire followed me
E
It is a radio to the gates
Bm A F#m
I’d rather hear your old voice follow me
E
But there is nothing to do but wait
[Chorus]
Bm
So here I wait
D E F#m
Here I wait
D D E F#m
Until I fall asleep
B
Speak with the dead
D E F#m
Here I wait
D D E F#m
Until I fall asleep
B
Speak with you again
[Verse 2]
Bm A F#m
Some knights/nights held the faith in rituals
E
If the left hand paths across your road
Bm A F#m
Pray with grimoires and swinging verticals
E
Our essence dissipates all the same
[Bridge]
(single strums)
Bm A F#m
In my dreams I’m on a porch with you
E
I promise you I’m doing well in your name
Bm A F#m
And I won’t try to speak with you again
E
Til I watch my last breath dissipate
[Chorus]
Bm
So here I wait
D E F#m
Here I wait
D D E F#m
Until I fall asleep
B
Speak with the dead
D E F#m
Here I wait
D D E F#m
Until I fall asleep
B
Speak with you again
Oh, to speak with you again
[Breakdown]
B C# D#m
Wherever I go
B
There you are
B C# D#m
Wherever I go
B
There you are
There you are
[Outro]
B C# D#m B (x4)
B C# D#m B
Wherever I go, there you are
B C# D#m B
Where you go, there I am
The breakdown section could use some work. I'm not totally sure about the second B/C#/D#m progression in the
breakdown as it might just continue on as a B shape while the bass and lead guitar give it some movement.
Room for improvement for sure.
