This is quite a difficult song to play. You can just strum the chords if you want although it sounds better if you pick them. Elvis may not play the bass notes since the song is played with a double bass and a guitar but if you pick each chord focusing on the bass notes it sounds pretty good to me! If you need any tips or help in playing it feel free to message me, enjoy :) C C/B Am Am/G F F/E Dsus2 No one looks in this place for motive or any hope G C F Dsus2 But for the dead shot of an amber glass, the blue light of a votive C C/B Am Am/G F F/E Dsus2 Rain obscured the window as the pain was dulled by the grains G C F Dsus2 Absolved by spoons in flames and fear in time dissolving G G/A G/B C C/B Am Am/G F It's not for the faint of pulse or anybody false Dsus2 G Gsus4 Those amateurs who simply she'd their skins G G/A G/B C C/B Am Am/G F Where are those traitors now, we once called patriots?
