Savatage – Alone You Breathe (Guitar)

G                C
You were never one for waiting,

G                                     C
Still I always thought you'd wait for me.

G                                  C
And have you from your dreams awaken,

G                                    C
and from where you are what do you see?

G                            C
Which of us is now in exile, which in need of amnesty?

G                            C                          G
Are you now but an illusion, in my mind alone you breath.

C               D                  Em D  C
You believed in things that I would ne-ver know.

C                 D                Em  D  C
You were out there drowning and it ne-ver showed

C             D                      Em   D  C
'Till inside a rain swept night you just let go.

G                       C  G                      C
You've thrown it all away, and now we'll never see.

G                    C
the ending to the play.

                       G
and what was meant to be.

G               C
In the dark a distant runner,

G                                C
now has disappeared into the night.

G               C
leaving us to stand and wonder

G                                C
staring from this end into your life.

C               D                  Em D  C
You believed in things that I would ne-ver know.

C                 D                Em  D  C
You were out there drowning and it ne-ver showed

C             D                      Em   D  C
'Till inside a rain swept night you just let go.

G                       C  G                     C
You've thrown it all away, and now we'll never see.

G                    C
the ending to the play.

                       G
and what was meant to be.

G
And if this is all illusion, nothing more than pure delusion, clinging

G
to a fading fantasy

G
Like Icarus who heed the calling of a sun, but now is falling as the

G                                        G
feathers of his life fall free.. cant you see......

G           D/F#   Em          C       D     G
Tomorrow and after, you tell me what am I to do.

G             D/F#        Em          C          D    G
I stand here, believing, that in the dark there is a clue.

G           D/F#              Em           C           D        G
Perhaps inside this midnight sky, perhaps tommorrow's newborn eyes.

G               D/F#         Em               C       D        G
Or could it be, we'll never know, and after all this was the show.

C       D      G
What am I to do?

G                D/F#                   Em
Gotta get back,  gotta get back, gotta get back.

C       D     G
What am I to do?

G                F#/D            Em
Gotta get back,  gotta get back, gotta get back.

C       D     G
What am I to do?

G             D/F#                  Em
Standing on a dream, isn't what it seems,

              C          D      G
could we then proclaim a dream reduce?

G               D/F#                   Em
Knowing what we know, could we let it go?

               C       D          G
Realizing that all our dreams are used.

G            D/F#   Em          C       D     G
Tomorrow and after, you tell me what am I to do.

G             D/F#       Em          C          D    G
I stand here, believing, that in the dark there is a clue.

G             D/F#           Em        C        D       G
I am the way, I am the light, I am the dark inside the night.

G                  D/F#               Em             C     D       G
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams, and in the dark I hear your screams

G            D/F#   Em          C       D     G
Tomorrow and after, you tell me what am I to do.

G             D/F#       Em          C          D    G
I stand here, believing, that in the dark there is a clue.
