A FAVOR HOUSE ATLANTIC - Coheed and Cambria
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
Here it is, the ninth in my Coheed series, and probably the band's most popular
song. A difficult tab to figure out, too, due to the multiple lead parts,
especially in the bridge. But it's a great song, so have fun!

LYRICS AND RIFF PLACEMENT
[INTRO] X2
[INTRO W/ LEAD]
[VERSE] X2
Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could
Recall the moments that once have
[VERSE W/ LEAD] X2
Retract the footsteps that brought us to this favor
I wouldn't ask this of you
[PRECHORUS]
Good eye sniper
I'll shoot you run
[CHORUS W/ LEAD]
The words you scribbled on the walls
The loss of friends, you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out
For them all to know the end of us all
[FILL] X2
[FILL W/ LEAD]
[VERSE]
Run quick they're behind us
Didn't think we'd ever make it
[VERSE W/ LEAD] X3
This close to safety in one piece
Now you want to kill me
In the act of what could maybe
Save us from sleep and what we are
[PRECHORUS]
Good eye sniper
I'll shoot you run
[CHORUS W/ LEAD]
The words you scribbled on the walls
The loss of friends, you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out
For them all to know the end of us all
[BRIDGE W/ LEAD 1]
Bye, bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step let down, face step... Step down
[CHORUS W/ LEAD]
The words you scribbled on the walls
The loss of friends, you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out
For them all to know
[BRIDGE W/ LEAD 2]
Bye, bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step let down, face step... Step down
[BRIDGE W/ LEAD 3]
Bye, bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step let down, face step... Step down
