Benediction

Tom: F

Verso 1:
       F                      C
Busted wire and the tattered tongue
          Bb                   F
Songs she wrote but she never sung
       F             C
Quiet eve of another year
             Bb
She'll soon forget

Verso 2:
              F                    C
Her blackened lungs from the cigarettes
           Bb                      F
Her mother smoke' when her father left
             F                   C
She sings a song in this side of town
              Bb
To change her mind

Refrão:
             Dm              Am  
And she said I have hope for others
        Bb           F    C
Father, I have given up
       Dm               Am  
'Cause I have hope for others
        Bb  Bbm          F   Ab   Bb   C#
Father, I...I have given up

(F   Ab   Bb)

Verso 3:
Quart' to ten in the room below
Busted wares suppose they'll need to know
Close her eyes and hums a song
That made her smile

Verso 4:
Grabs a note and reads aloud
"The passion new'd make a mother proud
I miss you so, it seems we all much going on"

Refrão:
                Dm              Am
Cause she wrote I have hope for others
            Bb             F  C
But Mother, I must go alone
     Dm              Am
Yes, I have hope for others
        Bb  Bbm          F   Ab   Bb   C#
Mother, I...I have given up.

Outro:
F    Ab     Bb     C#                F    Ab
               Well I've, I've given up
Bb        C#                 F    Ab
  Well I, I, I, I have given up
Bb        C#       F    Ab
  Yeah, I've given up
Bb         C#                F    
 My love, my God, I've given up
      Ab           Bb           C#
In my heart, in my heart, in my heart,
      F            Ab           Bb
In my heart, in my heart, in my heart
   C#                F    Ab
I have, I have given up
      Bb           C#           F
In my heart, in my heart, in my heart,
      Ab           Bb           C#
in my heart, in my heart, In my heart
                     F
I have, I have given up

(F Ab Bb C#) 4x
