GRAVENIMAGE- Sonata Arcitca
Acoustic version by sinForge xJp
This IS NOT based on a recording/performance!!
Standard Tuning (EADGBe), Capo 4
*Notes to the player*
The purpose of this, as most of my SA tabs, is to arrange the music
to be more appropriate for an accoustic guitar. There is only so much
I am able to do to incorperate the WALL of music into one instrument,
but I do my best. Tony has proven himself to me as a very aggressive
interlude writer, so in instances like this, I try and simplify that
section to fit the settings.. however, you are free to use my guidelines
and run free!! Have fun!!

We met that night when the sea ran high
And I craved for more of that near-love experience
Those who the music hath then joined together are now put asunder
[Main Theme]
(Em)
Remember me when I lit the fire
To keep us warm on a cold winter morning
Now I pass through the moment.. Can I still recognize a beautiful.. melody?
[Main Theme x2]
(Em)
I play a note, but hear no sound
Have I lost my love or the wings I found?
When I was young, and eager to please anyone who had time..
[Main Theme x2]
Needed to sing the very notes I heard
Had to stay in the shadows and seek for the loneliness..
Nevertheless, the price was higher than I had realized
I was to live alone, ready to make the sacrifice..
Was I in love with you?
My old heart, little harder again
Once the light goes out, everything ends, it is time..
Ready to cause a scene, ready to make the sacrifice
Ready to play the note, ready to end the final show
The only thing I know..
The pain is here to stay I fear..
In my eyes.. I can change one note and make you cry
In this state of mind.. Silence is a crime

How can life be so feigned and cold?
I've answered the call of every melody, lovingly
Did I find the answers to all my questions,
Or a gravenimage of me..
[Main Theme x2, sing some Oh's while you're at it]
If I found the hidden foun - tain..
Drank the wisdom from its deep..
Would I have the time to save me?

Would I have.. them both.. to.. keep..?
