"Ten Summoner's Tales"
Transcription by Luis Ferreira
Intro
[F9] /nr [D#7-5] /nr [Dsus4] [Cmin6] /nr
[Aadd9] [A] [Gadd9] [G] [Dadd9] [D] [Dadd9] [D]
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
[Aadd9] [A] [Gadd9] [G] [Dadd9] [D] [Dadd9] [D]
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
[Aadd9] [A] [Gadd9] [G] [Dadd9] [D] [Dadd9] [D]
You could say I lost my sense of direction
[Aadd9] [A] [F#7sus4] [F#m7]
You could say all of this and worse but
[Esus4] [E] [F#7sus4] [F#7] [G] [G/A]
If I ever lose my faith in you
[Esus4] [E] [F#7sus4] [F#7] [G6] [A7sus4] [A7add11]
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
[G6] [Em] [G6] [Em] [G6] [Em] [G6] [Em]
[F#m] [C#sus4] [E9] /nr [Bsus] [Bsus4] [C#sus4] [F#]
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
[C#sus4] [D7-5] /nr [F#m9]
But every time I close my eyes I see your face
[Aadd9] [A] [G] [Gadd9] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dadd9]
I never saw no miracle of science
[Aadd9] [A] [G] [Gadd9] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dadd9]
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
[Aadd9] [A] [G] [Gadd9] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dadd9]
I never saw no military solution
[Aadd9] [A] [F#7sus4] [F#m7]
That didn't always end up as something worse but
[Esus4] [E] [D6]
Let me say this first
[Bsus4] [B] [C#7sus4] [C#7] [D]
If I ever lose my faith in you
[D/E]
If I ever lose my faith in you
[Bsus4] [B] [C#7sus4] [C#7] [D]
There'd be nothing left for me to do
[D/E]
There'd be nothing left for me to do
[Esus4] [E] [F#7sus4] [F#7]
If I ever lose my faith
[G] [G/A]
If I ever lose my faith
[Esus4] [E] [F#7sus4] [F#7]
If I ever lose my faith
[G6] [A7sus4] [A7add11] [A7sus4] [A7add11]
If I ever lose my faith in you
[G6] [Em]
