I couldn't find any chords for this band anywhere online, so I figured out a few myself. This is E.M.P.T.Y. from
Strange Geometry (as of right now someone has an mp3 of it up
here). I am leaving out a considerable amount of flourish, which is pretty easy--just listen to the record. I am also not transcribing the solo, which I recommend you fake while halfway to drunk.
Chords:
E A D G B e
Bsus4: X X X 11 12 12
Esus4: X X 9 9 10 X (or XXX455)
Intro:
B E A E :|
B E A E
When I'm riding home at night,
B E A E
now I get in so tired
B E A E
to the saws & bows that spell out
B E A E
E.M.P.T.Y.
B E F#m E
But driving west now, half past
B E F#m
five, my skin is cut
E B
my hands are knives
E F#m E B
I could be anyone alive
E A E
but I just can't fit
B E A E
and it's too late to quit
[Alternate between Bsus4 and B here]
Bsus4 B
When the night it comes to me
E
I wonder if the days I've lived through count
Bsus4 B
With the world strung like a rosary
E
through faces moving in the crowd
Esus4 E B
What is the colour & the number
E
when happiness begins?
Esus4 E
When the knight waits in the
B A E
laurels hesitating
[This would be a good time to start playing
the violin if you have a third arm]
C# B
I found a clarity I'd never known
E
in fag-end weeks before I left for
A
school
C#
the darkness in the pylons
B
& the smoke & creosote
E A
cancelling the faces that we knew
B E A E :|
[Solo not transcribed]
[Additional verses follow the opening]
Did they forget the light inside
your eyes?
Those simple words,
those lovers' signs?
The hand is dealt, the cards are
played but I just can't fit
& it's too late to quit
I saw them & I knew them all
inside a sheet of flame
I saw them & I knew them all
inside a sheet of flame
When I'm riding home at night
now I get in so tired
to the saws & bows that spell out
E.M.P.T.Y.
