Piece of fish, really. The more observant of you will have noticed that riff 5 is just an octave higher than riff 3. Riff 4 is *very* hard to hear, because of all the stuff going on in the background, however I think I've got it just about right. If you're feeling adventurous, use a power chord instead of an open A in riff 1. It's played sort of like this: Opening : Riffs 1 & 2 Verse : Riff 2 "When I feel..." : Riffs 1 & 2 "Can't wake up" : Riffs 3 & 4 Lyrics (taken from the sleeve from "Elizium" with the odd extra bit) ~~~~~~ He said: how lonely you are Waiting at the sunday park I'll elude you I will loose you Existing We're no soul apart You stand Stand on a platform Your effigy dissolves in my hands When I feel Like someone to lie on And I feel Like someone to rely on You can't wake up, you can't wake up You can't wake up... Illusions Born of the air Something Seems so precious there I'll elude you I will loose you As rehersal of my despair When I feel Like someone to lie on And I feel Like someone to die on You can't wake up, you can't wake up You can't wake up... Oh here me I'm what you have left Here I am In this necrologue of love ~~~~~~ Personally I don't think Carl (dear as he is) can spell: "here me" indeed. I'm sure he says "lose" instead of "loose" as well. Perhaps if it was anyone else it could be called ambiguity, but I've heard the man talk. ~~~~~~ Pope Bovophobe V is Arch Cyberpope, Ordo Templi Thermophilic Philopoles, C.P.P. "I saw their starved lips in the gloam, With horrid warning gaped wide, And I awoke and found me here, On the cold hill's side." -John Keats, after a surge of clairvoyance, found himself looking into the 80's.
