To Another Abyss Bad Religion
This an awesome song off The Empire Strikes First album that was a little
to difficult for me to just tab it, so I wrote out the chords to help you
guys understand the song a little bit better. You'll need to listen to the
song to figure out the strumming patterns, but it's a very easy song to play.
Chords used in this song:
E|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| G|-------5----7----8----3-------| D|--5----5----7----8----3----3--| A|--5----3----5----6----1----3--| E|--3------------------------1--|
[G] [C] [D] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
[G]Not long ago, and yet the [C]image is so vague
[D]I hesi[Eb]tate to label [Bb]it a memor[F]y
[G]There was a show of local [C]color and I felt astray
[D]Cause I had [Eb]nothing to of[Bb]fer but insuff[F]iciency
[Eb]And you know that it's a [F]b**ch
When you [Eb]learn to scratch that [F]itch
Of [Eb]blatant fallibili[F]ty
Sooner to [Eb]some, but eventual[F]ly
All gets [Eb]pointed in the same [F]direction
While the human [Eb]masses and their vague [F]conceptions
Obliterate each [Eb]other with impunit[F]y
And you [Eb]wonder, "What's in [F]this for [D]me?"
To another abys[G]s [Bb] [F]
To no avai[G]l [Bb] [F]
The [G]search is [Bb]bound to [F]fail
[D]To another abys[G]s [Bb] [F]
To no avai[G]l [Bb] [F]
So [G]long ag[Bb]o I set [F]sail
And it [Eb]chills me to the [D]bone
That I'm [C]so far aw[F]ay from ho[G]me [Eb] [Bb] [F]
To another abyss[G] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
Post Chorus: Play 2x // b=bend // h=hammer on // p=pull off

So [G]what should I do now? [C]What should I celebrate?
[D]Given f[Eb]inite means and a [Bb]penchant to de[F]preciate
How [G]can I still avow and [C]depend upon a state
[D]That cares [Eb]nothing for my [Bb]happiness, welfa[F]re, or fate?
And I [Eb]know I can't exp[F]lain
The co[Eb]mmotion in my [F]brain
Like a [Eb]terrifying r[F]eality
Deconst[Eb]ructed but inadequate[F]ly
All gets [Eb]pointed in the same [F]direction
While the human [Eb]masses and their vague [F]conceptions
Obliterate each [Eb]other with impunit[F]y
and re[Eb]lease the [F]weight of histor[D]y
To another abys[G]s [Bb] [F]
To no avai[G]l [Bb] [F]
The [G]search is [Bb]bound to [F]fail
[D]To another abys[G]s [Bb] [F]
To no avai[G]l [Bb] [F]
So [G]long ag[Bb]o I set [F]sail
And it [Eb]chills me to the [D]bone
That I'm [C]so far aw[F]ay from ho[G]me [Eb] [Bb] [F]
To another abyss[G] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
So [G]long ag[Eb]o, so [Bb]long ag[F]o[G] [Eb]
Oh, I set [Bb]sail[F] [G] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
And I'm [G]struggling on the [Eb]way
And I'm [Bb]waiting for the [F]day (to another abyss)
And I'm [G]looking for the [Eb]way back hom[Bb]e (to another abyss[F]) [G] [Eb]
So [Bb]far away[F] (to another abyss)
So [Bb]far away[F] (to another abyss)[G] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
(to another abyss)[G] [Eb]
So [Bb]far awa[F]y
G Eb Bb F End on: G
(to another abyss)
