This is a great song, fantastic live. Drop-down tuning by 1 fret, that's what they do
Intro:
Synth plays really high G, so just play 15th fret on e-string if u want
When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
G with riff d|-12-12-9-12------ then C chord stil with riff, then G
a|-----------10-10-
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know, no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand
*same chords all through verses, easy*
Another head aches, another heart breaks
I'm so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no
Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
You know you got to help me out, yeah
Verse:
And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be
Chorus
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Break-down:
G (for 2 bars, but only play the lowest notes)
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
G (power type chord, slide down a little but after each strum:listen to song)
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
(same as the )
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
Em ( go all out)
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier (Time, truth and hearts)
Chorus:
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Over and in, last call for sin
(let ring)
When everyone's lost the battle is won
G (riff again)
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done (Time, truth and hearts)
If you can hold on
If you can hold on
G to the end
Hold on
