Serj Tankian – Deafening Silence (Guitar)

G#m   B          C#m    G#m
I ...know ...who you ...are

G#m   B          C#m    G#m
I ...know ...who you are not

G#m   B          C#m    G#m
I ...know ...who you ...are

G#m   B       C#m    G#m
I, I know who you are not.

     G#m                 B   
The silence is deafening to my ears

               C#m         G#m
How could the obvious be ignored?

     G#m                         B
The silence is threatening when she appears

      C#m          G#m
The ceremony is performed

     E                         G#m
I'm here to paint you with my tears

   C#m             D#      G#m
Decried my spirit over my fears

   E                            G#m
I can't walk away from all the years

   C#m              D#   G#m
Serene inside, she disappears

G#m         B         C#m      G#m
Ends of my mind, my thoughts trembling

    G#m       B     C#m           G#m
The hands of time, time always meddling

     G#m                 B   
The silence is deafening to my ears

               C#m         G#m
How could the obvious be ignored?

     G#m                         B
The silence is threatening when she appears

      C#m          G#m
The ceremony is performed

     E                         G#m
I'm here to paint you with my tears

   C#m             D#      G#m
Decried my spirit over my fears

   E                            G#m
I can't walk away from all the years

   C#m              D#  G#m
Serene inside, she disappears

     G#m                       B                  
Nightlights are for children, mornings for adults

          C#m             D#
Know the egalitarian equinox

     G#m                  B
The hands of my mind, my thoughts trembling

     C#m                E  
The hands of time, time always meddling

 G#m                 B
Silence is deafening to my ears 

    C#m               E
How could the obvious be ignored?

    G#m                         B
The silence is threatening when she appears

     C#m             E          G#m
The ceremony will always be performed

     G#m                 B
The silence is deafening to my ears

 E                            C#m                  Picking E D#
Seized by the impressions of passers in the night

     E                         G#m
I'm here to paint you with my tears

   C#m             D#      G#m
Decried my spirit over my fears

   E                            G#m
I can't walk away from all the years

   C#m              D#   G#m
Serene inside, she disappears

     E                         G#m
I'm here to paint you with my tears

   C#m             D#      G#m
Decried my spirit over my fears

   E                            G#m
I can't walk away from all the years

   C#m              D#   G#m
Serene inside, she disappears

G#m    B          C#m   G#m
I ...know ...who you ...are.
