READ FIRST:
When I note Fmaj7, I'll just put F.
When I note C9, It's really Cadd9 (no5)
This is just for all the people that would look at this and say, 'thats not a c9' lol
IF YOUR LOOKING TO PICK THIS:
When playing the C, you can use your pinky to hammer the third fret of the b
string. When playing the Am pull off the b string.
If anybody has any input or comments, I'm always listening lol.
Chords:
C x32010
Am x02210
C9 xx0530 (really Cadd9)
F X33210 (really Fmaj7)
Em 022000
The Scar
C Am
I'd like to sneak around the house When everyone's asleep
C9 F Em
Tiptoe across the door mat that used to welcome me
C Am
Then gently shut the door to see a brand-new Christmas tree
C9 F Em, (hold)
And the silence pounds like a kettle drum and a chill runs through me
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/blue_october/the_scar_crd.html ]
Chorus:
C Am
But does she ever miss me? I still hear her singing
C9 F Em
Just like an orchestra, just like a painting
C Am
With velvet brushes and wooden framing
C9 F Em
A familiar Monet that's worth renaming The scar
I choked up the dirt, completely hurt I ran straight through them all
Then pushed aside what's left of pride And trembled through the hall
And there stands a door you'd seen before When all you knew you was down
And your perfume breath brought peaceful death On sleepy silver gowns
Chorus
Yeah, to wake is such a dreaded thing To sleep is such a hole
I eat without your company I drink till I unfold
And now hear the end of everything Just thrown onto the ground
But October fell and broke my shell And all I knew was down
Maya-ya-da Maya-ya-da May-ya-da, oo
Ya da die, may ya die May ya die, oo
Ya da da, oh-oh
Ya da da, ya da die, oh
