transcribed by pieter kamps

This is a neat song with some cool lyrics. give it a try.

|=======pm=======| means palm mute

start off here, play each chord and let it ring for a sec before moving on.

e-----------------|-------------------|
b-----------------|-------------------|
g-10---9-------12-|-10---10---12---12-|
d-10---9---5---12-|-10---10---12---12-|
a-8----7---5---10-|-8----8----10---10-|
e----------3------|-------------------|

then there's this, which is like a solo I guess.

e-------------------------------------|
b-------------------------------------|
g-------------------------------------|<--- 1st half of solo
d----------------20-00-0-020-00-3-33--| 
a-33333323-332323-----3-3------3----3-|
e-------------------------------------|
         continued below
e-------------------------------111---|
b-66666665-555555-3-33331353-331---1--|
g----------------5--------------------|<--- 2nd half of solo
d-------------------------------------|
a-------------------------------------|
e-------------------------------------|

then the singing comes back in. "We live our lives another way..."

e------------------------|    |--------------------|
b------------------------|    |--------------------|
g-55555555------12121212-| x2 |----5---------------| x4
d-55555555-5555-12121212-|then|-3--5--5---55555555-|
a-33333333-5555-10101010-|    |-3--3--5---55555555-|
e----------3333----------|    |-1-----3---33333333-|

After that it's a verse without guitar, the bass is really prominent for four bars. Then it comes to this

e-------------------|
b-------------------|
g-55555555----------| x1
d-55555555-55555555-|
a-33333333-55555555-|
e----------33333333-|

 |========pm========|

Then after that, play the first half of the solo, and instead of second half play this
play these barre chords like each string individually downstroking, like written


e----------------3-----3---------|
b-6666-68---------3-----3--------|
g-----5------------3-----3-------|
d--------2-0--------5-----5------|
a------------3-------5-----5-----|
e---------------------3-----3----|

after this, go back to the "we live our lives another way" part, play BOTH PARTS x4
Then finish up with this
 
e--------------|
b--------------|
g-------5------|
d-5--3--5------|
a-5--3--3------|
e-3--1---------|

let the last chord ring for a fade out. that's it
