INTRO
VERSE 1
VERSE 2
CHORUS
VERSE 3
CHORUS 2
BRIDGE
SOLO
CHORUS 3

Notes:
Bridge: Just before the solo theres 
a small bridge something like C#m, A

Solo: (you need a violin!guitar 
plays verse chords)

In the third chorus theres a 
nice change when glen says 
'sometimes its easier just.....'
and its F#m, G#, A

'Sometimes I, sometimes I' 
B

'Redeem yourself......'
Starts on C#m and descends

That is most of what the first 
guitar plays but there is a 
lot of second and third guitar work 
during the song:

bends high up on the e and b strings 
during the intro and verses:
2nd guitar                  
b|----16b-----|

e|----15b-----|


Some picking of chords after 
glen says 'my revelate' 
during verses, starting on 
C#m, E, A, F#m heres the pattern:

         C#m
|-----------------------|
|---------5-------------|
|-----------6-----------|
|------6----------------|
|---4-------------------|
|-----------------------|

During the second chorus you hear 
a short pick scratch(x) and 
a heavy strum(X) a few times

'My open arms,my lucky.....'
     x
'My number 8, my revelate'
                    XX XXX
(X Achieved by placing fingers 
lightly on all strings and 
strumming on high destortion)
