Opeth – Godheads Lament (Guitar)

G A  A#
Marauder

C#       G         F     E   D      C B
Staining the soil, midst of stillness

G       A          A#
Beloved fraternity to an end

C#    G   F     E   D   C B
Red eyes probe the scene

G   A   A#
All the same

C#      G       F      E D  C B
Stilted for the beholder

G   A  A#  C#      G
Depravity from the core

F    E      D       A#         A
Handcarved death in stoneladen aisles

Bm          C    G       A
I hide the scars from my past

Bm     C    G        A
Yet they sense my (mute) dirge

Bm       C      G         A
This is when it all falls apart

Bm      C       G         A
White hands grasping for straws

E
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind

E
Undisguised manmade nova

E
Mute cry, don't dare to tread

E
Searing beams tracking you down

C#      C    Bm            D# D A# Bm
Adoring what never has been

C#      C    Bm                            D# D A# Bm
Some will bring with them all they have seen

Bm           Asus2     G      D  Em
Searching my way to perplexion

Bm               Asus2
The gleam of her eyes

        G
In that moment she knew

Em         D        C      D
Thought I could not leave this place

Em
On this imminent day

Em         D       C      D
As I've reached the final dawn

Em
To what's gone astray

G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay

G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know

G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay

G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know

Em         D        C      D
Thought I could not leave this place

Em
On this imminent day

What would they care if I did stay

G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know

G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay

G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know

Bm          C    G       A
Still brooding, soothing clam

Bm          C    G       A
That rigid, twisted face

Bm          C    G       A
Blank godhead, tear my name

Bm          C    G       A
Lost virtue, frantic lust

E
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind

E
Undisguised manmade nova

E
Mute cry, don't dare to tread

E
Searing beams tracking you down

C#      C    Bm            D# D A# Bm

Bm           Asus2     G      D  Em
Searching my way to perplexion

Bm           Asus2   G
In crumbling faith I saw her

Bm          Asus2       G         D  Em
Bearing her pain in the wilderness

Bm               Asus2
The gleam of her eyes

        F       Fm
In that moment she knew
