PROPHETS – Ac Newman
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This song feature in the season 4 finale of the TV show 'How i Met your Mother'
and that prompted me to attempt to learn this song. Having searched for it on
the net i found that there was no tab for it, so i worked it out roughly and
decided to post it on here. I would appreciate any comments or ratings you would give. Thank you.

G D C
I was a silent partner.
G D C
I found myself with the rabble who stood on the mount,
G D C
hipshot, thinking, but not out loud:
G D C
"There are too many prophets here."

G D C
On the unlucky side of a stab in the dark,
G D C
I took it in silence, I took it to heart.
G D C
I carried it quietly over the wall.
G D C
There were too many prophets there.
C + Pre chorus riff
I was behind it
G D C
one by one by one by one
G D C
one by one by one by one
G C
Stand on, zero.
G C
Stacked on zero.
G D C
one by one by one by one
G D C
one by one by one by one
G D C
I was a silent partner for once,
G D C
and I had been split into two sections.
G D C
Here is my heart and here is my song.
G D C
There are too many prophets here.
C + Pre Chorus Riff
I am divided.
G D C
one by one by one by one
G D C
one by one by one by one
G C
Stand on, zero.
G C
Stacked on, zero.

G D C
I was a silent partner,
G D C
I know the part of the forest where you shouldn't go.
G D C
Now out of the woods and out in the day,
G D C
I see there's too many prophets here.
G C
one by one by one by one
STAND, ON ZERO.
G C
one by one by one by one
STACKED ON ZERO.
G C
one by one by one by one
STAND, ON ZERO.
G C
one by one by one by one
STACKED ON ZERO.
G C
one by one by one by one
