Sonata Arctica - Wildfire

wildfire – sonata arctica
acoustic version by sinforge xjp

this is not based on a recording/performance!!

* i simplified the bridge for this type of cover .
the bridge spans from the end of the first chorus
till the “burn burn burn” line .

standard tuning , capo 2

F#m . . D . . Am . . . .
F#m . . D . . E . . . . .

Am
burn honey , burn!! let the fire eat away . .
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
i never liked the look of this town . . burn it down now!!
Am
i’ll run . . they all know what i’ve done
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
i fetch my gear and take my leave from this mountain

F Am F
i never had a chance to prove i wasn’t guilty
D/F# G
i always seemed to get blamed for
F Am F D/F# G
every little crime , i didn’t even have a name for

Am
still running . . still defeated in my mind
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
i never even tried to defend my own pride
Am
the father ain’t always like the son
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
they claim we’ve purloined , i’m not the one!!

F Am F
the story always goes , when the anger within
D/F# G E5 Edim
builds up for too long , takes us over!!
E Am F#m . . D . .
and we all are forced to obey!!

Am F#m . . D . .
it was a match made in hell , now the whole mountain burns!!
E
and every man gets what no man deserves!!

Am F Dm
our beloved kin never learned to fit in
C G/B Am
now i pay for my name , live my life in sin
F
how much less can i ask from you people?
Dm C G/B Am
this town stays in disarray , til the rules are the same for us all , hey . . .

[ dance around “i – v – i” in D for A
while , then in G , then back in D ]

Am
i’ve ran on this mountain , with no guilt of my own
( Am )
the trees and the rocks , every cave , every hole
( Am )
i dropped them a line , “beware , this mountain will
( Am )
blow in your face . my last saving grace . . . ”

[ chords here improved on my part . . i feel like
“i – n6 – i – v” was an alright thing to put . . .
it doesn’t sound wrong , but i couldn’t decifer
the real chords behind it all ]

Am A# Am E
bells toll all over town , burn , burn until it’s all gone
Am A# Am E Am
game over , what was a bad joke is now a reality show
E
oh , we all are forced to obey . . . oh , we all are forced to obey!

Am E Am
i climbed up the mountain and dug a grave for each day of pain
E
it’s in the past , this moment’s so frail . . i Am what you made me
Am E
with years of abuse , so burn!!!! ( burn , burn , burn )

Am F#m . . D . .
it was a match made in hell , now the whole mountain burns!!
E
and every man gets what no man deserves!!

our beloved kin never learned to fit in
C G/B Am
now i pay for my name , live my life in sin
F
how much less can i ask from you people?
Dm C G/B
this town stays in disarray , til the rules are the same for us all , hey . . .
