Into Temptation
(N. Finn)

-- the reason the acoustic guitar part on the verses in this song is so
wonderful is because Neil limits the number of strings he plays to only
a few.  since this is so key, i've included *all* the chords for the
verses at the end.  take special note to which strings should not be
played at all (X).



INTRO:  Em  Em7/F#  Em/G  B6

                   Em   Em7/F#   Em/G   A   B6
you opened up your door
B                     Em   Em7/F#   C
I couldn't believe my luck
B                    Em    Em7/F#   C
you in your new blue dress
D#sus         Em     Em7/F#   C
taking away my breath
B                      Em     Em7/F#   C
the cradle is soft and warm
D#sus             Em    Em7/F#   C
couldn't do me no harm
B                        Em     Em7/F#
you're showing me how to give

G
into temptation
D                     Em               A/C#*   B
knowing full well the earth will rebel

into temptation

B                   Em      Em7/F#   Em/G   A    B6
a muddle of nervous words
B                     Em        Em7/F#   C
could never amount to betrayal
B                      Em     Em7/F#   C
the sentence is all my own
D#sus                    Em    Em7/F#   C
the price is to watch it fail
B            Em   Em7/F#
as I turn to go
C             D#sus         Em      Em7/F#   C
you looked at me for half a second
D#sus            Em     Em7/F#   C
with an open invitation
B
for me to go

G
into temptation
D                     Em                A/C#   D
knowing full well the earth will rebel
G
into temptation
D           D#sus     C              D
safe in the wide open arms of hell

Bm        A/C#
we can go sailing in
C     D     Bm                     A
climb down, lose yourself when you linger long
G
into temptation
D           D#sus Em    Em7/F#   C    D
right where you belong

Em  Em7/F#    C   D#sus

                  Em    Em7/F#   Em/G   B6
the guilty get no sleep
       B                  Em         Em7/F#   C
in the last slow hours of morning
B             Em     Em7/F#   C
experience is cheap
D#sus                       Em       Em7/F#   C
I should've listened to the warning
        B                  G        D    A/C#    D
but the cradle is soft and warm

G
into temptation
D            D#sus    Em                A/C#   D
knowing full well the earth will rebel
G                   D
into your wide open arms
   D#sus  C         D
no way to break the spell
C                  D
break this spell
C            D      A2*
don't tell
