Listen to the song to get the picking pattern.
Song goes like this, with chords placed over where they occur:
Verse:
G
Cold is the water
C
It freezes your already cold mind
G (fill)
Already cold, cold mind
G
And death is at your doorstep
C
And it will steal your innocence
G (fill)
But it will not steal your substance
Chorus:
d C G
But you are not alone in this
C Em G
And you are not alone in this
C Dsus4 G Em <--(walk down)
As brothers we will stand and we'll hold your hand
Em G
Hold your hand
(fill)
Verse:
G
And you are the mother
C
The mother of your baby child
G (fill)
The one to whom you gave life
G
And you have your choices
C
And these are what make man great
G (fill)
His ladder to the stars
Chorus:
d C G
But you are not alone in this
C Em G
And you are not alone in this
C Dsus4 G Em <--(walk down)
As brothers we will stand and we'll hold your hand
Em G
Hold your hand
(fill , build up momentum to strumming)
Climax/Breakdown:
C Dsu4 Em C G
And I will tell the night
C Dsus4 Em C G
Whis-per, "Lose your sight"
C Dsus4 Em C G C G
But I can't move the moun-tains for you
Don't forget to play the Em differently on that last bit and play the C the same you
as in the chorus.
Hope this was helpful it is a beautiful song.
