from now on I write the chords resulting from the bass and guitar part together.
Bass plays G A Bb C, guitar keeps arpeggiating on Gm 3553xx (or 3103xx?).
Gm Am Bb Cm Gm Am Bb Cm
Countless times I trusted you, I let you back in
Gm Am Bb Cm Gm Am Bb Cm
Knowing... yearning... you know I should have run but I, I stayed
Gm F Cm Bb Gm F
Maybe I always knew
Cm Bb Gm F Cm Bb Gm F Cm Bb
My fragile dreams would be broken for you
Gm Am Bb Cm Gm Am Bb Cm
Today I introduced myself to my own feelings
Gm Am Bb Cm Gm Am Bb Cm
In silent agony, after all these years, they spoke to me... after all these years
Gm F Cm Bb Gm F
Maybe I always knew
Cm Bb Gm F Cm Bb Gm F Eb F
My fragile dreams would be broken for you

in the instrumental part, "Gm" means to alternate Gm and Gsus4, while
"Eb" ... .. ... Eb ... Eb6.
Gsus4 is 355533, Eb6 is x65543.
playing the song with a capo on the 3rd fret makes it easier.
the guitar riff is essentially made of two slighly different repeating figures:
|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---3-----3-.| over Gm
|.--------------------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---------3-.| over Eb and Cm
|.------------5-------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
the only relevant variation, played over the F chord:
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|--5-3-2----5-3-2------|
|--------5--------5-3--|
|----------------------|

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ANATHEMA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
