There is alot of solo work and riffs going on throughout the entire song.
Being a singer and not an fantastic guitarist, I can't figure them out,
and if I could, I wouldn't be able to play them and sing at the same time.
I'm sure they're not hard for someone who can play lead.

Intro: G Am F C G

Verse 1:

G
It's bitter -
Am
It tastes alot like winter.
    F      C       G
And will it, release me?
G
So heavy -
Am
How much more to bring down the levy
    F       C          G
And kill me? Don't kill me.

Chorus:

G         D          Em
I've been stayin' high.
              C             G           D  Em  C
And I've been feeling sorry for myself.
G             D            Em
And I've been ressurecting my,
   C            G               D  Em  C
My fortress to protect myself.

Verse 2:

G
Shattered -
Am
Tired, beaten, worn down and tattered and
F      C      G
Can you even hear me?
G
What do you expect out of me?
          Am
I'm being buried alive and screaming,
          F   C               G
Can't you see - oh, can't you see me?

Chorus:

G         D          Em
I've been stayin' high.
              C             G           D  Em  C
And I've been feeling sorry for myself.
G             D            Em
And I've been ressurecting my,
   C            G               D  Em  C
My fortress to protect myself.


Verse 3:

G
Weary -
Am
My hands slapped I'm cautious and leary
   F      C             G
of tryin' - oh but I'm tryin'
G
How am I to figure it out?
    Am
All along I've been kicking around
            F     C         G
Without my home, yeah - I'm so lost, so lost.

Chorus:

G         D          Em
I've been stayin' high.
              C             G           D  Em  C
And I've been feeling sorry for myself.
G             D            Em
And I've been ressurecting my,
   C            G               D  Em  C
My fortress to protect myself.

G         D          Em
I've been stayin' high.
              C             G           D  Em  C
And I've been feeling sorry for myself.
G             D            Em
And I've been ressurecting my,
   C            G               D  Em  C
My fortress to protect myself.

G     D
Na na na na na na
Em    C              G
Na na na na na na na na
G     D
Na na na na na na
Em    C              G
Na na na na na na na na...


Naturally you're playing this song for a big crowd of people. Get them to
sing some "na na na's" for ya. Great song. Even better band.

I hope you enjoy this tab. I know that it's hard to find the lesser known
Sister Hazel tabs around. If I feel motivated I might get the rest of the
CD done that isn't posted yet.

Adios!
