"Bed of Ashes" by July For Kings - This works perfectly for me but I only really play acoustic and the song really should be played on electric. Like my favorite song ever, love the lyrics. Help with the rest of Swim would be appreciated. Key - A# Tuning - standard Chords (standard tuning): * (I) (II) e|------------------------------------------------------- B|------------------------------------------------------- G|-----------------5-----7----7*-----10------------------ D|----7------8-----5-----7----7*-----10------3-----5----- A|----7------8-----3-----5----5*------8------3-----5----- E|----5------6-------------------------------1-----3----- * is a harmonic ----------------------------------------------------------------- Intro (x6): (I) (*) Verse 1: Do you hear those distant voices And sounds through the flames The deafening drone Of these clanking machines In the lights It's the same We're trying to free ( palm mute) The sculpture from the stone We'll take the rhythm from the throne If the radio is dying Listen to me won't you listen to me ------------------------------------------------------------ Chorus: I don't want to lie in a bed of ashes (II) I don't want to burn in a midnight sun I don't want to know if the system crashes I don't want to go if it's just begun I don't want to lie in a bed of ashes (II) Intro (x4) I don't want to burn in the midnight sun In the midnight sun ------------------------------------------------------------ Verse 2: I scream like a madman in the morning No one heard a thing I had hoped for a more effective warning No one felt the sting ( palm mute) Someone's savior never saved Take it away 'till there's nothing left to say The radio is dying Listen to me Won't you listen to me Chorus Bridge: A#5 (palm mute) Dancing like a child Will we feel at all Or just smile in another pretty prison G5 (palm mute) The wires frayed and broken free (pick scrape down) It's loud as hell but I don't want to listen A#5 (palm mute) Is existentialism so desperate? (pick scrape up) Condition may seem painful but it won't last G5 (palm mute) I just march, march Sometimes I get the last laugh Machines and dreams To make the choices for you Machines and dreams I won't go out like that Machines and dreams To make the choices for you Machines and dreams-- I won't go out Chorus (x2) Ending (Intro x4)
