Rattle that lock, Rattle that lock, lose those chains Rattle that lock, Rattle that lock, lose those chains [Verse 3] Cm And all the other travellers, Become phantoms to our eyes, Furies and the revellers, Fallen angels in disguise. [Chorus 3] Ab No discord chance or rumour, Fm Is going to interrupt this bliss, Ab No discord chance or rumour, Fm Is going to interrupt this,

[Verse 4] Cm So let's get to it, it's calling like a flame, Through the darkness and the night, The world suspended on a golden chain. [Chorus 4] Ab No discord chance or rumour, Fm Is going to interrupt this place, Ab No discord chance or rumour, Fm To interrupt this,

The rhythm for this song live is played as just (1-2-3-4-). However on the record there is a more complex (1&2&3-4-)(1&2&3&4-) pattern in the verse. In the chorus between the Ab and the Fm you can play a Gm as a passing chord. *********************************** | x dead note | p pull-off | / slide-up | \ slide-down | ~ vibrato | b bend | b with no target note is micro-bend (1/4 tone) |()pb note is pre-bend being held from previous bend from () fret | pbr pre-bend release |( ) implied chord (not actually played) ***********************************
