Tuning: Drop D
I took a pretty quick stab at a cover for this song. To the best of my knowledge, there
isn't much guitar action during the verses hence the absence of tabliture. I've seen a
fair few of this song done in Standard tuning, but it doesn't have that same punch as
Drop D. Hope you enjoy!
Verse 1:
This is gospel for the fallen ones
Locked away in permanent slumber
Assembling their philosophies
From pieces of broken memories
Bridge:
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart [x2]
The gnashing teeth and criminal tongues conspire against the odds
But they havenÂ’t seen the best of us yet

Verse 2:
This is gospel for the vagabonds,
Never-do-wells and insufferable bastards
Confessing their apostasies
Led away by imperfect impostors
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart [x2]
DonÂ’t try to sleep through the end of the world
Bury me alive
'Cause I wonÂ’t give up without a fight
Chorus(Same as previous):
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
‘Cause these words are knives that often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh, the fear of falling apart
Oh, the fear, the fear of falling apart

Let me know what you think or any tweaks. I didn't input strumming amounts as I like to
think we all have a bit of a different style to play songs at and I like to throw some
different step downs in power chords during the song that you may not want. Thanks!
