The Fog Lyrics

As the other chords' version might sound fine but is completely different to what Rachel
plays, here is the one given me by a good man who managed to figure it out. It sounds
really good and fairly close to the original to me.
Here are the (few) chords played:
ch /ch
ch /ch
ch /ch
ch /ch
ch /ch
C7/Bb (Bb down octave) = 078970
Put a capo on the 6th fret and follow this basic picking (Fm example):
I hope it is clear enough... yes I know that the names of the chords are not related to
the capo (forgive me), but the fingering is.
Shall we begin then?
INTRO (PICKED):
ch /ch /ch
ch /ch /ch /ch
VERSE (PICKED):
ch /ch /ch
Deep deep down under mountains I have heard them call my name
Will I play their little game and tell them
ch /ch /ch
Deep deep down I've been waiting for the fighting to begin
ch /ch
Hold my hands on
ch /ch /ch
Deep sleep now, under skies of pressing dark upon my dress
Watch it turn from white to red under the bone clean moon
ch /ch /ch
I am clinging to this burning shaking bed
ch /ch
Must I hold my hands up
ch /ch
C7/Bb (Bb down octave)
My bloody hands up
CHORUS (STRUM!):
us2sus4
Mercy, mercy, I've been caught
Lying with my darkest thought
They grab my wings and pin me to the wall
Oh light please try to hold your ground
Lift me up before I drown
The din creeps 'neath my skin
And I can't hear no Goodness speak
INTRO (PICKED):
ch /ch /ch
ch /ch /ch /ch
VERSE (PICKED):
From the neighbouring town
ch /ch /ch
There's a boy who comes to sing upon our street
I watch him from the window thinking deep deep down
ch /ch /ch
He'd be richer if he just became a thief
ch /ch
Instead he holds his hands out
ch /ch
I walk down to the river
ch /ch
Stand and shiver in the wind
Throw stones to watch them sinking to the icy blue
ch /ch /ch
Let it rise above my ankles
ch /ch
I don't want this darkness
ch /ch
C7/Bb (Bb down octave) Fm C Db6
But the sun just falls from the sky
CHORUS (SSSSTRUM!)
CHORUS (PALM MUTE, STRRRRUM!)
INTRO (PICKED)
If anything I wrote is wrong it is because it is 2:38 in the morning... and if it is
right instead, then thank that good man, as I already said.
Have fun spending - at least - one week learning how to play this song.
I shall soon be writing the tab to Sleep aswell.
Good night for now!
