Cadd9 Gadd9
gabriel, would you listen?
Gadd9
faith alone is a prison
Gadd9

C (with tab below, transition into the chorus)
gabriel, would you listen?
Chorus: The repeat pattern here is a little funny, so be careful.
The whole four measure pattern is played twice, but the
two measures in the middle (Am Dsus2) are only repeated
the first time. Also, the last measure (Gadd9) is not
repeated exactly, but continues on into the solo below.

Bridge: The tab througout the bridge is given below. Note that the
first two measures aren't repeated note for note, and that
the four measures (C Em Dsus2) towards the end are heavily
strummed, and i'm far too lazy to go into detail there.
A C G(add9)
the church is fallen
A C G(add9)
the priests are hardened
Asus4 A Bsus4 B
these are your workers
C Em Dsus2
that is all this love, this earth
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
this good forsaken
A C G(add9)
