A Fond Farewell Tabulatur von Ari Hest

C 
My mother once told me
Esus     E 
The thicker your skin,
A7sus A7
The better off you'll be
dm
When this world brings you down
Dm/G    /G#
It's trying to control me
Amdm7
Leave me without hope
F
In the past I've been burned
G
But I've lived and I've learned

Chorus:
C     G/B
'Neath the shelter of the pouring rain
AmG
In the absence of this fear and pain
CG/B
I will finally bid my ball and chains
Am - G 
A fond farewell
C G/B  
On a road that leads me to my place
AmG
Gonna rid my heart of past disgrace
FG
I will finally bid this sluggish pace
Am - G 
A fond farewell...
 
C
I heard their reservations
EsusE
And I read their bitter words
A7susA7
I shined a light upon their wisdom
dm
No matter how absurd
Dm/G  /G#
Oh they broke my heart to pieces
Amdm7
And I questioned my own beliefs
F
My dignity was gone
G
It's time to move on...

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
F
Say goodbye to feeling sorry for myself
To begging others for far too much help
dm
This is my hand these are the cards that I've been dealt
Only I can make these changes, nobody else
F
Say goodbye to these sleepless nights
Those corridors with no end in sight
dm
A driven man with these words I write
G
I'm making peace with my soul tonight

(Repeat Chorus)
