Wind And Walls

Key: DCapo 4Hard

Alright, this is BY NO MEANS supposed to be an actual representation

of what TTMOE does in the album version. I've tried to transcribe this

song to Standard Tuning, yet the artist uses an alternate tuning for

the real thing. Consequently, my version will differ from the original

recording here and there, but I've done my best for those who don't

wanna waste a lot of time tuning their guitars. So please take it for

what it is: An interpretation. No more, no less. It is still accurate

enough to play along the original version.

The strumming pattern is pretty important in this song in order to make

it sound right. Listen to the song a few times and try playing along,

I'm sure you'll get it quickly.

Even more, the D chord variations he does really make this song. TTMOE

plays around with D major, Dsus4 and Dsus2 almost anytime you see a

D chord in here, starting in the intro already. Once again, listen to

the recording to get it right. Now hit it and have fun! :)

(to be in key with original recording)

DAEmDA

Well, 'DAll is well in order' is what you tAhought you heard them say

and Emso you drifted off to see what's Dnot in yourAself

DLight is turning slowly will it Alay out on the plains?

EmNo more nights of what you wrote back Dthen,

no reAlief of Gno rain D A

And so, Dsinging songs of rivers tied to Aaccidents within

and Emtelling people lies of lions, Dtreasures, and Akings

DNothing's more revealing than the Adancer and the doubt

Emwaving to forget what's never Dgone, always Athere, never Gright

A In all these riots of Dbroken sounds A

Like the last voice you Emheard

then you Adrowned, oh Dlord A Em D A

You know, Dthis is wind and walls and weathered Aleaves and tearing sails

and Emminnows in your pockets when the Drapid's on Atrails

Dthis is not the future but I Asense it's right up there

oh, Emjust another hour, another Dpass, another Aday anyGwhere

A In all these riots of bDroken sounds A

And you sleep on the Emtrack

every Anight, oh Dlord A Em D A

GAnd we don't know if your treasure is safe

where will you Abe when they Dfind you, son? Bm

And you Gknow they're always following me

so when I Aget there you Dtrust me son, and just Bmleave,

I'll catch Aup A6 A7

DThis is where you're passionate of Aseasons and their strength

and Emthis is where you breathe and walk and Dknow they will Aend

DLight is turning slowly to the Ahand upon your chest

so Emlay it on the plains where there is Dtime, there is Alove, there is Grest

A From all these riots of Dbroken sounds A

EmWhen you sleep on the track

every Anight, oh Dlord A Em D A

GAA6GAA6

And we Gdon't know if your treasure is safe

where will you Abe when they Dfind you, son? Bm

And you Gknow they're always following Ame

I'll be the best when the Dsilence comes.

Darkness Of The Dream

Key: DMedium

F#m

DEDEAD

And so I'd Dstumble in the Alight

The night was always Dthere

To end all repeEtition

Insane? I Dbother with the Ablinds

Carry on and Dlove will be Ehere

I met this girl from my Bmold town

But sadly she could Esee

I'm still a bunch of Amemories

And shit that I Dbelieve

And suddenly the Bmrain

E (let it ring out)

Is the only part you feel

And there's the darkness of the AdreaDm

DOh LorEd

EAnd there's the Ddarkness of the AdreaDm

DOh LorEd

But she was Dsomething of a Aflame

Just tellingD me to quiet

Excuses and the Evisions

Just let Dyourself out of your Asight

Careless and some Dlove will be Ehere

And now you sleep and get some Bmrest

From all the songs you Emake

They're all a bunch of Amirrors,

And fuck it, I'm Dafraid

That suddenly the Bmrain

Is the only part you Efeel

And there's the darkness of the AdreaDm

She said, I Bmain't got no time for no Ebroken believers

And Alie like the foolish Done

It's taking Bmhours and days and I just Ewant to hold you

And Aend of a wait bDegun

I said I think of Bmhours in everyonEe...

The Dletting go is here and Anow

The beauty is in your Darms

No mind is out to Ewander

Just let Dyourself out of your Asight

Careless and some Dlove will be Ethere

And now there's this dancer in the Bmdream

Just rowing in the Enight

And I can't believe howA pretty

And I can't believe the Dsigns

When suddenly theBm rain

E (let it ring out)

Is the only part you feel

And there's a darkness of the AdreamD

(strum once per chord)

F#mA fear of Bmheart and all of its Eturnings

And it's Anever letting Dgo

F#mI'm sure I'll Bmsleep when all this goes Eunder

But now, Awill I sleep Dalone?

(start strumming slowly)

E (let it ring out)

It only starts with a river

But I know it's only waiting for the Agolden grounDd

EDAD

(this part is very hard to make out due to the drowned

out guitar)

It's Awide and awake

But I'm Dshowing up late

On the Bmway there was something

That told me to Estay

I Afeed on the sunlight

But Dsunlight just drives me Bmaway E

In the Aloving game

The Asummer is deep

And the Dmemories still

The Bmgarden is full

And I'm Eway over hills

I Asee there's a line that I'm Dwalking

And I'm just the Bmsame E

It's an Aendless game

BmIn the darkness of the Edream D

Slow Dance

Key: CCapo 8Easy

(10 if using DABEAE)

CGD

CAnd so to be one to lie to the captain

DSure I'm coming back

CBut I walk along and meet up a tree line

DCover up at last

AmAnd they're raging at the Gbeach for some Dlight

But like the Gbirds I was Cgiven all this Dtime

CAnd to stop believing in the returning

DI went on

CSo vaguely I still hear the bands but not

DWhat's going on

AmI guess they're raging at the Gbeach for some Dlight

But like the Gbirds they're Cforgiven every Dtime

AmBut then I know that I'm a Dstranger in this land

And I Gwake you up by speaking what you Ccannot understand, no

AmAll I said was there were Dmountains in my way

GBut they're slowly disappearing

And I Cbalance when I feel you to my Amskin

D (let it ring out) C

In times like these even travelers can win

CTo be high in trees when they walk

DJust forth and back and out

CAnd the vessel's gone and I will stay to

DFigure this one out

AmI bet they're raging in the Gseas for some Dlight

And like all Gbirds they're Cgiven all this Dtime

AmAnd now I hold on fall is greeting me to Dstay

And we Gslow dance in the kitchen and I Cdream the days away, oh

AmAnd just like Lucinda's you are right on Dtime

There are Glouder cities somewhere

But I dCon't think I'll be back where ringing Amstays

D (let it ring) C

In a place like this I should never feel afraid

(single strums)

GGet CarounGd

CThis is Ghandsome Dlife

GI guess my Crhythm Ggrew

CThrough my Gdarker Dtime, oh

CI was not the killer I was one just Dsetting sail

CWith the fear of sideway winds just turning

DDownward with the hail

OhAm, I was raging in the Gfield for some Dlight

But like the Gbirds I was Cforgiven with this Dtime

AmIn this sunlight I just can't believe your Dface

We're some Glaundry line believers

We're just Ckids in many ways, oh

AmAnd you smell like smoke and honey in my Darms

I'm Gsomewhere in some falling and I'm Clearning of your language for to Amsay

D (let it ring) C

In times like these I should never grow away
