Intro (let the last note ring)

*You can play this note as a low D, you have to turn your E string to a D then and

than you have to play every note 2 frets to the right i think. Or as a high D or just

as E-1- Do what you like:)

Maybe Mige makes more variations,but i only heard this one clearly one time in the chorus

Heartache is knocking on her door

Shadows dance outside her window

Tears keep falling on the floor

As theworld around her crumbles

If you want to save her

First you have to save yourself

If you want to free her from the hurt

Don't do it with your pain

If you want to see her smile again

Don't show her you're afraid

Because your circle of fear is the same

Love can be as cold as grave

A one-way ticket to endless sorrow

An empire of gentle hate

Today without tomorrow

If you want to save her

First you have to save yourself

If you want to free her from the hurt

Don't do it with your pain

If you want to see her smile again

Don't show her you're afraid

Because your circle of fear is the same

It's the circle of regret

The circle of hate

The circle of death

Your circle of fear is the same
