Sonic Syndicate – My Escape
(capo 3)
Intro: F Am
F Am
(verse)
F Am
I see the world through eyes of desperation
F
Never knew how long I'd fall
Am
But I fell through years and years of darkness
F
Still I cannot seem to hit the ground
(pre-chorus)
G F
I let my guard down and you caught me by surprise
G
Nothing is ever carved in stone
[Chorus]
C Am
Will I spend my life wondering
What could have been
C
If I didn't throw it away
Or will I struggle on
Am
And find a better path for myself
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sonic_syndicate/my_escape_crd_ver_2.html ]
(same as verse)
I've built my life upon decades of experience
But what I built for years took days for you to raze
In the end I learned that one single snowflake
Can set an avalanche in motion
(same as pre-chorus)
Some questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option
This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes
But I left my guard down and you caught me by surprise
Nothing is ever carved in stone
[Chorus]
F Am G G F
I secure my every step, slowly I advance away from you
Am G G
How can I forgive you when it wasn't your fault
Will I spend my life wondering
What could have been
[Chorus][2x]
Note1: You can play a G between F and Am in verses
Note2: You can also quickly pass from Am and back to G halfway through second pre-chorus
