Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Alright, Damien finger picks through this entire song, and the pattern that he
does raises the difficulty level to intermediate, I think. I tabbed this by ear
from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIOHSrZPitI
I'm 99% sure that everything here is correct. Listen to the song to figure out the
picking/strumming pattern. Pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
Also, this is probably the best suicide song I've ever heard.
Chords relative to capo.

Intro: Cadd9 C Cadd9 Em F C Cadd9 C
C Cadd9 Em
Oh tonight I will retire
F C Cadd9
To the arms of my lover
C Cadd9 Em
The sweetest kiss she will give
F C Cadd9
As I lay down beside her
C Cadd9 Em
What will she think when she awakes
F C Cadd9
Just to find I have left here
Em F(hold)
C Cadd9 Em
Oh tonight I will retire
F C Cadd9
To these hands with revolver
C Cadd9 Em
And I don't fear death, I will commit
F C Cadd9
Like an old friend I've known forever
C Cadd9 Em
So come on in, take me on
F C Cadd9
No I won't stay here no longer
Em F
And if I should taste fire
Em F (hold)
Save me not, I deserve to die
C Cadd9 Em
And oh tonight I will retire
F C Cadd9
To loving arms of my savior
C Cadd9 Em
And we will walk through his gates
F C Cadd9
To the skies of Heaven
C Cadd9 Em
And no more tears will I cry
F C Cadd9
Are my sins, are they forgiven
Em F
And if I should taste fire
Em F
Save me not, I deserve to die
Em F
And if I should taste fire
Em F
Save me not, I deserve to die
F Cadd9 end on C
