Agalloch – A Desolation Song (Guitar)

          G           F
Here I sit at the fire

                        C               G6  Am
Liquor's bitter flames warm my languid soul

                  G             F
Here I drink alone and remember

                    C            Em7   Am
A graven life, the stain of her memory

            G              F
In this cup, love's poison

                  C        G6   Am
For love is the poison of life

            G             F
Tip the cup, feed the fire,

                  C               Em7
And forget about useless fucking hope. . .

Am            Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of love

      G          F        Am
The passions we reap and sow

              Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of life

      G            F     Am
This path that we walk. . .

               G             F
Here's to love, the sickness

            C            G6  Am
The great martyr of the soul

               G         F
Here's to life, the vice

           C         Em7   Am
The great herald of misery

            G                  F
In this cup, spiritus frumenti

                 C              Em7  Am
For this is the nectar of the spirit

                  G                 F
Quench the thirst, drown the sorrow

                  C      Em7
And forget about cold yesterdays. . .

Am            Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of love

      G          F        Am
The passions we reap and sow

              Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of life

      G            F     Am
This path that we walk. . .

Am            Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of love

      G          F        Am
The sorrows we reap and sow

              Em7          G   Am
Lost in the desolation of life

      G            F     Am
This path that we walk. . .
