Avenged Seven Fold-Dear God

Intro:  F-C-Dm-Am-Bb-F-C   x2


F        C             Dm                 Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Bb                F            C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
F          C           Dm                 Am
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
     Bb                  F
Can't help but wish that I was there
     C
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah


F    C       Dm          C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
   Bb                      F
to hold her when I'm not around,
         C
when I'm much too far away
F        C         Dm           C
We all need that person who can be true to you
      Bb               F
But I left her when I found her
   C
And now I wish I'd stayed
           Bb             C
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
     Am          Dm  C  Bb
I'm missing you again oh no
          F
Once again


F                C          Dm              Am
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
       Bb                         F
There's no one here while the city sleeps
     C
and all the shops are closed
F               C            Dm                 Am
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Bb                 F              C
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah


F    C        Dm           C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
    Bb                        F
to hold her when I'm not around,
         C
when I'm much too far away
F      C         Dm             C
We all need that person who can be true to you
  Bb               F
I left her when I found her
   C       
And now I wish I'd stayed
          Bb              C
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
      Am         Dm   C  Bb
I'm missing you again oh no
         F
Once again


Dm     Am     Bb               F
Some search, never finding a way
Dm      Am  Bb             F
Before long, they waste away
Dm      Am  Bb                      F
I found you, something told me to stay
Dm    Am  Bb               F
I gave in, to selfish ways
Gm                         C
And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade...

Avenged Seven Fold-Unholy Confensions

      Am                   F       G
"I'll try," she said as he walked away.
Am
"Try not to lose you."
            F            G
Two vibrant hearts could change.
Am
Nothing tears the being more than deception,
F        G
unmasked fear.
Am            F        G          Am
"I'll be here waiting" tested and secure.


Am            F
Nothing hurts my world,
G                     Am
just affects the ones around me
Am                 F
When sin's deep in my blood,
G                    Am
you'll be the one to fall.


Am              F      G
"I wish I could be the one,
Am      F         G
the one who won't care at all
Am        F              G
But being the one on the stand,
Am F       G                           F
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
Am                    F               G
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
Am F        G       Am
I know it's hard to fall.
Am          F           G
Confided in me was your heart
Am F        G       Am   F        G       Am
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."


Am                        F
Nothing will last in this life,
G                 Am   
our time is spent constructing,
Am                               F        G
now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
Am                          F
Constrict your hands around me,
G                     Am
squeeze till I cannot breathe,
Am                          F
this air tastes dead inside me,
G                 Am
contribute to our plague.
Am
Break all your promises,
F
tear down this steadfast wall,
G
restraints are useless here,
Am
tasting salvation's near.
