*NOTE* You can get the guitar fill in and
Leads from the tads UG HAS POSTED, Have Fun!

A down strum each time shown.
[Verse 1]
C                  C
When the sky is gray
C                   C
And the moon is hate
C                     C
I'll be down to get you.
C                        C
Roots of earth will shake.
[Chorus]
Ab       C
Sinister Purpose
Ab               C
Knockin' at your door;
Ab               C
Come and take my hand
[Verse 2]
C                     C
Burn away the goodness;
C               C
You and I remain,
C                       C
Did you see the last war?
C                    C
Well, here I am again.
[Chorus]
Ab       C
Sinister Purpose
Ab               C

Come and take my hand

Make you rice and wise.

We can live forever;
C               C
Look into my eyes.
[Chorus]

Come and take my hand
