Down there in that cavern where heaven grows If there were words, if there was hair that I could drag you back with And I'm gonna sweat beneath the light of a warm world Oh yeah Better get my head down there Oh where? Down there in that cavern where heaven grows Out here in the street, naked in front of God and everyone And I'm just sitting here waiting for things to come So cram that page baby You think I'm sweating like this just for fun? And hey I know it's true but I just can't say it Just one touch And everything will be all right Just one touch And everything will be all right The Slab (Studio) On the original recording, the song is all drum and bass up until the very end, when this is played over and over until the end. e|--0-0--x-x--0-0-0--x-x--0--0--| B|--0-0--x-x--0-0-0--x-x--0--0--| G|--0-0--x-x--0-0-0--x-x--0--0--| D|--2-2--x-x--2-2-2--x-x--2--2--| A|--2-2--x-x--2-2-2--x-x--2--2--| E|--0-0--x-x--0-0-0--x-x--0--0--| Any comments, suggestions or corrections? greigfam@tac.com.au
