WILDFIRE- Sonata Arctica
Acoustic version by sinForge xJp
This IS NOT based on a recording/performance!!
*I simplified the bridge for this type of cover.
The Bridge spans from the end of the first chorus
till the "Burn burn burn" line.
Standard Tuning, Capo 2

Burn honey, burn!! Let the fire eat away..

I'll run.. They all know what I've done
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
I fetch my gear and take my leave from this mountain
F Am F
I never had a chance to prove I wasn't guilty
D/F# G
I always seemed to get blamed for
F Am F D/F# G
Every little crime, I didn't even have a name for
Am
Still running.. Still defeated in my mind
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
I never even tried to defend my own pride

The father ain't always like the son
C G/B Dadd11 G/B
They claim we've purloined, I'm not the one!!
F Am F
The story always goes, when the anger within
D/F# G E5 Edim
Builds up for too long, takes us over!!
E Am F#m.. D..
And we all are forced to obey!!
Am F#m.. D..
It was a match made in Hell, now the whole mountain burns!!
E
And every man gets what no man deserves!!
Am F Dm
Our beloved kin never learned to fit in
C G/B Am
Now I pay for my name, live my life in sin
F
How much less can I ask from you people?
Dm C G/B Am
This town stays in disarray, til the rules are the same for us all, hey...
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sonata_arctica/wildfire_crd.html ]
[Dance around "i - V - i" in D for a
while, then in G, then back in D]
Am
I've ran on this mountain, with no guilt of my own
(Am)
The trees and the rocks, every cave, every hole
(Am)
I dropped them a line, "Beware, this mountain will
(Am)
Blow in your face. My last saving grace..."
[Chords here improved on my part.. I feel like
"i - N6 - i - V" was an alright thing to put...
It doesn't sound WRONG, but I couldn't decifer
the real chords behind it all]
Am Bb Am E
Bells toll all over town, burn, burn until it's all gone
Am Bb Am E Am
Game over, what was a bad joke is now a reality show
E
Oh, we all are forced to obey... oh, we ALL are forced to obey!
Am E Am
I climbed up the mountain and dug a grave for each day of pain
E
It's in the past, this moment's so frail.. I am what you made me
Am E
With years of abuse, so burn!!!! (Burn, burn, burn)
Am F#m.. D..
It was a match made in Hell, now the whole mountain burns!!

And every man gets what no man deserves!!

How much less can I ask from you people?

This town stays in disarray, til the rules are the same for us all, hey...
