i transposed this by ear , and i think it’s pretty dead on . just keep in mind that
the rhythm does change during some chord changes ( especially during the interlude )
so moderate your progression . it’ll help by listening to the song while playing . enjoy!!!
intro/verse : G , Cadd9 , Em , D7
anguish and misery fall here like a dead star
and everything you ever said
now tears me all apart
chorus : Cadd9 , G , Em , D7
he goes down , down to his bitter end
he knows now , now it’s the gutter
he goes down , down to his bitter end
he knows now , now you can’t touch him
intro/verse : G , Cadd9 , Em , D7
pray for the rain
oh , are you up there
do you listen
it’s the terror and the pain and i
just wait for you to have risen
chorus : Cadd9 , G , Em , D7
he goes down , down to his only friend
he knows now , now that you love him
he goes down , down to his bitter end
he knows now , now you can’t touch him
bridge : Em , Am , G , D7
i hold on to you like the death of an angel
and i hold on to you with all the life that’s in me
intro/verse : G , Cadd9 , Em , D7
why was i not good enough to save you from destruction?
and your end and my beginning
oh , they need no introduction
chorus : Cadd9 , G , Em , D7
he goes down , down to his only friend
he knows now , now that you love him
he goes down , down to his bitter end
he knows now , now you can’t touch him
interlude : Em , Am , D7 , G
sweet as honey
i’ll live forever
pure as first love
just come home
end segment ( repeated brigde chords ) : Em , Am , G , D7
i hold on to you like the death of angel
and i hold on to you with all the life that’s in me
and i hold on to you like the death of an angel
and i hold on to you with all the hope i have left
and i hold on to you
watch the death of an angel
and i hold on to you
until the light pours like honey
