Toba The Tura chords by Forgive Durden

Razia's Shadow is an eloquent masterpiece of music. An incredibly talented
grouping of artists all on one concept album, each track is truly its own universe
of sound. 'Toba the Tura' was one (among many) of my favorites featuring
Chris Conley from Saves The Day.

So you're Ahrima, collusive dreamer.
Em      A      Dmaj7      Bm7
I watched the lamps fall, you pushed them over.
Em       A      Dmaj7    Bm7
They say you're gifted, well I just see a scared kid.
Em       A      Dmaj7      F#
They must have flipped it, your skills are latent.
Bm7        Dmaj7         Em
O, you snuffed the glow. Replaced it with coals.
        F#
Threw away the throne.

O, you snuffed the glow, replaced it with coals.

Burnt down my home.

You had a life of privilege, hope and love.
Em       A     Dmaj7      Bm7
But now that's all gone. Maybe the design's flawed.
Em       A      Dmaj7     Bm7
So that's why I'm here, to preserve the remainder
Em       A    Dmaj7   F#
Of what chance we have left at an existence.

Bm7       Dmaj7          Em
O, the desolate dirt. The raw, scorched earth.

It's a trophy of your worth.

O, the desolate dirt. The raw, scorched earth.
         F#
It's a scar of my hurt.

Bm7        Dmaj7    Em       A
Your cold, wicked soul boasts a foul scent. (No, a stench)
Dmaj7   Bm7     Em       A
The formidable taste of pure contempt.
Bm7    Dmaj7      Em       A
Every dark corner will soon see the light. (O, so bright)
Dmaj7    Bm7         Em        A
The beaming flood will pour right through the blinds.

  Bm7             Dmaj7
My words will tear through the air,
          Em
Pierce through the despair,
       F#         Bm7
To find your arrogant, throbbing ears.
          Dmaj7
If it's too much to bear, or to hear,
  Em
Or take, I'll be frank,
    F#
Let my inflection be crystal clear.
Bm7          Dmaj7         Em
This mess that you've made, it's a six-foot grave.
           F#         Bm7
It's a home for your lonesome bones that remain.
      Dmaj7         Em
We'll disappear, but you'll stay here to rot
    F# -- (play as xx11,11,11,9)
As The King of The Dark and Forgot.

Em    A    Dmaj7      Bm7
What have I done?   Please make me your son.
Em    A    Dmaj7     Bm7
What have I become?  Destroyed all I love.
Em
O, what have you done?
A        Dmaj7          Bm7
Disobedient son, you've broken the trust of your father's love.
