These are the chords that the 
acoustic is playing during the song.
 Your going to
have to figure out the strum pattern
 by yourself. The Chorus can be 
played with a
D instead of a B but it's going to 
sound funny on guitar no matter 
what. Try it on
a key board and it will fit.

Intro : E,A

Verse 1:
E
Ten thousand glimmering like coals 
in our chest
A
Ball bearings drawn to the magnetic 
breath
    E
Of ten thousand weeping with wings 
on their tears
        A
Amidst ten thousand voices for ten 
thousand years
         E
For ten thousand graves yawning 
unlocked and unlatched
     A
Now ten thousand holes with rocks on
 their backs
    E
Ten thousand tombs gaping wide 
singing the praise
Continúa después del anuncio
    A
Of ten thousand bodies unlaced and 
unlaid


Pre - Chorus:
        B                     A
As the ten thousand highways unfold 
their doors
         B                      
For the ten thousand standing on 
  A
Nineveh's shores
            E               
Where the blood of a husband 
    A
silences wars
B                          E
For the girl who rises to meet him
and she sings


Chorus:
A
World, I have overcome you
E
World, I have overcome you
B
World, I have overcome
       A             E         B
By my song and the blood of a son


Verse 2:
E
Ten thousand rivers run red like my 
veins
A
Where the bones of men hum like a 
rattling cage
E
For sinew to cling to for wind to 
remain
A
In ten thousand lungs for ten 
thousand days
E
Breathing like a choir of holes in 
the ground
A
Where the cynical have lain, where 
the cynical go down
E
Save the gravity of time lets go of 
her drowned
A
Like ten thousand sparrows unlocked 
and unwound
