Toil

Ben Marwood - Toil
Tab by Neil Wicker
Standard tuning.
sounds right to me but let me know if you find any mistakes.

----2-----------4-----7-------------|
----------2-------------------------|

If you hear this song aloud, when I am not around
Please know that everything will be alright, and life can’t hurt you now.
If youre sick of days a quiver, is it time to stand and shout
Send your enemies to hiding instead of hiding out.


------7-------9------9-----7--------------------------------------|

Believe me when I say Im at peace with the day
When the dead will rise and take me to my grave.

Verse 2:
(Same as first verse)

Believe me when I shout
there's no point freaking out
you can't claim a single second lost to doubt
it's the movement of the atmosphere
the way you choose to disappear
the silent shout that's what you hear
back up     (stop playing here)   < your regrets
and wind down the days you   >

Chorus:
(same)
If you hear this song aloud when I am not around
please know that everything will be alright
and life can't hurt you now
send your enemies to hiding instead of hiding out

And yes it's true we've loved and lost but in the end we've won
we've the best in friends and family and an endless thirst for fun

--2----3----6----7----2----3---|
--2----3----4---------2----3---|

with a love of the macabre and a sideline for bad jokes
we'd rather sing of Lovecraft than sit through
Hollyoaks.

Chorus:
(same as intro)
If you hear this song aloud when I am not around
please know that everything will be okay
though I am in the ground
'cause it isn't where you finish, it's the way you run this race
and I intend to go the distance, but I'll do it at my own pace.
