Farewell Faded Memory

intro
E, B, A  x4
E    B               A
Hey, another numbing light of early morning
E        B                 A
 another pile of half-read books
E         B            A
 nice and safe in my serene surroundings
E     B                A
 evil smiles and empty looks
E   B           A
why justify why you can think at all?
            E   B   A
i guess i'm far too safe
E    B            A
cry, falsify this turmoil of emotion
           E    B  A
and you'll feel no pain, but
E                    B
 i'm pretty sure the sun will rise and
C#m
   give me the strength to shield my eyes
     B                                  A
from all the lights and all the lies of compromise
    E               B
and i always try to understand
    C#m
but looking back, it's hard to
B
know that you were bought and sold
      A
for a box filled full of spanish gold
he plays the intro 4 more times, but slows down throughout, and bend the accent notes.
listen to the song and it makes sense. then from this point until the '*',
just strum the chord once and let it ring.  when you get to the '*',
start playing the intro/ verse riff again
E   B                                  A
  i sifted through some archives yesterday
E   B                 A
    met you in a photograph
E           B               A
 i saw your face and simply had to look away
E   B                             A
  i know that that would make you laugh
*E  B             A
 so many things i guess i should remember
      E     B    A
but i don't know how
E  B              A
so many things so easy to forget
          E    B   A
i guess i miss you now, but
E                   B
i'm pretty sure the sun will rise and
C#m
   give me the strength to shield my eyes
     B                                  A
from all the lights and all the lies of compromise
   E                B
and is this a faded memory or
C#m
   did i see you crawling
B                           A
out towards the open sea so sad and free
    E
without me
E  B   A
  oh, without me  x3
  E                    B       A
i bid farewell to the faded memory
E B A
