This one has been done before. This way it might be easier to play.
The C chord used could be a simple C or the Csus2(x32030/x32033). I like using the
basic C in the verses and then switch to the Csus2 in the chorus. They both work in
either place. In the chorus I like to hammer on/off the G note on the high E string
Tuning: 1/2 step down (,,,,,)
Verse 1:
Here I am, lost in the light of the moon
that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides
the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses
Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow As I let you go
I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Verse 2:
Here I am, lost in the ashes of time,
but who owns tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
Pre-Chorus:
My mind drifts away, we only have today
Chorus:
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice 'til that blinding day when I see your eyes
Bridge:
When the veils are gone as I let you go, as I let you go
[vocal interlude: x2]
Chorus:
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow As I let you go
I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Ending:
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides
the thorns from the roses
It's you who is closest
