:(!) NOTICE! On a record, verses/bridges are played with 2 Gt's.:
:(!) Gt#1 plays partly-muted chords and Gt#2 plays riff/melody, :
:(!) but I tabbed this for ONE guitar, including the riff. :
:(!) You'll have to play it with fingers, so it's quite tricky. :
:(!) OR you can play it strumming style too, sounds nice also. :

Am7 Em7 C*
A sculpture of an angel in ice, stands before me,
Am7 Em7 G (Gsus4)
The more I hold her the more, she melts away.
Am7 Em7 C*
She was a sculpture of an angel in ice, just not made for me,
Am7 Em7 G* (Gsus4)
So sad as she left, she said “please don't wait.”

But I still hear her whispers, 'carried' in the breeze
Gsus4 G Gsus4 F
Saying, “baby, lets live while our souls are still free.”
CHORUS

But I'm down on my knees, crushed to the floor,
G F
Screaming surrender like never before,
F G B5-C5-E5
I knew it was wrong, still trying to hold on.
F Am Em7
And I'm down on my knees, with myself to blame

Am7/G Em7/G C/G
All my faith was in pieces, like a broken glass,
Am7/G Em7/G G (Gsus4)
As I, tried to collect it, I cut myself.
Am7/G Em7/G C/G
After time all the pieces, were all replaced,
Am7/G Em7/G G (Gsus4)
As my love for her faded, to the silent place.
