Adam Raised A Cain Chords

[Intro]
Em  Am    Em  Am    Em  Am    Am   Em
 
[Verse]
        Em        Am     Em     Am
In the summer that I was baptized,
           Em     Am       Am  Em
my father held me to his side.
        Em     Am       Em   Am
as they put me to the water,
            Em      Am      Am  Em
he said how on that day I cried
 
[Bridge]
        Am
We were prisoners of love,
  C
a love in chains,
       Am
He was standing in the door,
      C
I was standing in the rain,
         Am                       B7
with the same hot blood burning in our veins,
 
[Chorus]
      Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
[Verse]
        Em        Am     Em        Am
All of the old faces,
              Em        Am     Em        Am
ask you why you're back.
        Em        Am     Em        Am
they fit you with position,
               Em        Am     Em        Am
and the keys to your daddy's Cadillac
 
[Bridge]
        Am
in the darkness of your room
    C
your mother calls you by your true name,
        Am
you remember the faces,
   C
the places the names,
         Am                              B7
you know it's never over, it's relentless as the rain,
 
[Chorus]
      Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
[Verse]
        Em        Am     Em Am
in the bible Cain slew Abel,
            Em        Am     Em   Am
And east of Eden Momma he was cast,
        Em        Am       Em    Am
you're born into this life paying,
          Em        Am        Em  Am
for the sins of someone else's past
 
[Bridge]
        Am
Daddy worked his whole life,
   C
for nothing but the pain,
        Am
now he walks these empty rooms,
   C
looking for something to blame,
         Am                       B7
you inherit the sins, you inherit the pain
 
[Chorus]
      Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
  Am                             C
Lost but not forgotten from the dark heart of a dream
 
[Chorus]
      Em
Adam raised a Cain
 
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain
D Em
Adam raised a Cain

Okay that's most of it, but there are some cool licks in the background in places, so here
they are, all tabbed out
 
at the bridge:
 
E---------------------|
A--7------------------|
D---------------------|
G---------4-----------|      Do this four times,
B-------5-------------|      listen to the song for
E---------------------|      timing.
 
 
And also at the chorus:
 
E-----------------------------|
A--7------------7-------------|        Also do this four times,
D------------5----------------|        Listen to the album for
G--------5^-4-----------------|        timing.  Note that it is hard
B-----5-----------------------|        to hear the first two notes.
E-----------------------------|        ^ means bend up.
 
I also promised the bass part, so here it is:
 
For the Verse:
 
E-0--3-----|
A------5---|
D----------|    x3
G----------|
 
The turnaround is the same, but backwards:
 
E----3--0-|
A-5-------|
D---------|
G---------|
 
For the bridge play the chord notes as quarter notes
 
For the chorus, play the same as the verse
 
Well, that was hard :). The boss rocks, keep playing and have fun.
