The Precipice

i play it with capo 3 instead , which have the following chord translations :
D# = C
Cm = Am
G# = F
A# = G

this also allows me to do the picking instead if i want it to sound like the original
instead of just chords . using open chords on capo 3 , i just pick a and D strings back and
forth for the C and the Am and the E and a strings for the F ( barred ) and G .

something like this :
D | – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – |
A | – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – – |
E | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – | . . . continue until chord change

D | – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – |
A | – 3 – – – 3 – – – 3 – – – 3 – – – 3 – – – – |
E | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – | . . . continue

D | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
A | – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – |
E | – 4 – – – 4 – – – 4 – – – 4 – – – 4 – – – – | . . . continue

D | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
E | – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – – 5 – – |
E | – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – 6 – – – – | . . . continue

i did this fast , so please let me know if i typed it up wrong . and sorry for the lack
of apostrophes – – ug does not like them .

verse 1 :

D#
i wish i could play the violin
Cm
id play til tears rolled down your cheek and chin
G#
and if you sang along
A# D#
we could write the saddEst song

verse 2 :

D#
sometimes i indulge my every whim
Cm
and piece – by – piece i build the cell im in
G#
but i only stay here long
A# D#
enough to write the saddEst song

chorus :

Cm D#
i dreamt i stood on a hill that i wished was a mountain
Cm D#
to look back on all my accomplishments
Cm D#
well they must have been small because i couldnt seem to find them
G# A# D#
so i took a leap off of the precipice

verse 3 :

D#
i wish i could play piano well
Cm
id hit the keys that make your spirit swell
G#
and if you sang along
A# D#
we could write the saddEst song

* repeat chorus *

bridge :

D#
whatever the cost

whether it works out or not
Cm
whatever the cost

whether it works out or not
G#
ill follow you
A# D#
ill follow you with my heart
