I Am A Temple


John Mark McMillan I am a Temple From "The Song Inside the Sounds of Breaking Down" Tabbed by thechadmiller (Twitter) 72 BPM Intro C - G - Am - F (Chunky bar chords) Verse 1 C G Am F Deep inside me there's this burning that just won't let me go C G Am F You are my fire, You are my righteousness, You are my rock n roll For the interlude and pre-chorus, start with the C on the 8th fret bar chord and climb up from there. For the E/F, play: e|---------| B|---------| G|---------| D|--14-----| A|--15-----| E|--12-----| Interlude C - Dm - F - E/F - Dm Verse 2 C G I wish I could fit you down inside my chest God Am F I wish that I could swallow you whole C G I'd wrap you up in a blanket of my skin Am F and you could call my body home Pre-Chorus x2 C Dm F E/F Dm I am a temple, I am a temple, My body is a temple, I , I am a temple Chorus C F So what if I'm not worthy! So what if I'm not worthy! G Am G So what if I'm not worthy! You have made me clean Intro Verse 3 C G I can't get over how quickly you recover Am F The pieces of my heart as they shatter C G Cause in your hands I am more than just a brand new man Am F And all my falling down now, well, it just don't matter Pre-Chorus x2 Chorus x2 The lead riff throughout the song is picked in these two positions. Listen for the changes. e|----7----8--| B|---8----8---| G|--5----5----| D|------------| A|------------| E|------------| For the rest of the guitar stuff, get creative and just play the mess out of it.
