A Perfect Circle

Text File

okay here's my stab at an acoustic version of this song..it's not perfect..but it works
when you're singing along. I played this along with the record and it sounded alright to
please rate and leave a comment and correct me if i'm wrong anywhere and if there are 
that can be improved. if you're not playing along with the record you don't have to
it down it sounds okay on E standard too.


Tuning: C# standard (One and a half step down)

on the 3rd Em, hammer on the 3rd fret on the A string and pull of to 0 and back.
on the 6th Em, do the 3 hammer ons at the end of the intro...and repeat this pattern.

Em             G                Em
Tilling my own grave to keep me level
Em          G               Em
Jam another dragon down the hole
Em             G              Em        G        Em
Digging to the rhythm and the echo of a solitary siren
Em       C         G                   Em
One that pushes me along and leaves me so

Dsus2
Desperaaaaaaaate and ravenooooooooooous,
   Asus2  C G         Em
So weak and powerless over you

(repeat second part of the intro riff)

Em               G             Em                G
Someone feed the monkey while I dig in search of China
         Em          C             Em
White as Dracula as I approach the bottom

   Asus2  C          G              D Dsus4
Dsus2
Desperaaaaaaaate and ravenooooooooooous,
   Asus2  C G         Em
So weak and powerless over you

Interlude:
E5 G5 A5 C5

Em         G
Pale angel go away
Em              C
Come again some other day
Em               G
The devil has my ear today
Em                C
I'll never hear a word you say
Em               G             C
Promised I would find a little solace
         D
And some peace of mind
Asus2    C                       D
Whatever just as long as I don't feel so

   Asus2  C          G              D Dsus4

Desperaaaaaaaate and ravenooooooooooous,

So weak and powerless over you

   Asus2  D          C              D
Desperaaaaaaaate and ravenooooooooooous,
   Asus2  C G         Em
So weak and powerless over you

Asus2   Cadd9
Over you
