Tabbed by: Tyler Gjersee


Tuning:Standard

Piano Intro: C              G

C                                             G               
Salt in the sky in the sweet summer air while mammoths depart

 C                                         G    
Abandon dispair with thirsty affairs of the heart

Am                                                F      
But the chances of escaping my heart are inadequate, and 

Am                                           F        
when all is said and done I'm left with my history

C   G    F  G    Am          Dm    F           G
Goodbye, my eyes shed heavy tears. One for every

C    G    Em             Am     F       G              C    
soul still sitting on the fence between pain and arrogance

C                                  G
Ebb to the left flow to the right. The exit's unflawed

C
The boys on the train

                               G
The almighty tongue with prose spilled in vain


 C   G   F  G    Am         Dm    F        G
Goodbye, my eyes shed heavy tears. One for every

C    G    Em         Am         F       G                         
soul still sitting on the fence between pain and arrogance

C       F           Dm     G           Em     Am      F         G      
We fall beneath the sea of dreams and fail to breathe until we resurface

C       F           Dm     G          Em     Am             F    Ab 
We fall beneath the sea of dreams and fail to breathe until we awaken again

Dm             G         Dm           G                 
Through all of this I've felt just the same

    Dm                G    C
The flame is gone the fire remains

String Interlude: Here are the chords. The strings have a lot of passing 
notes here so each chord will be a little weird at times. Several measures 
per chord.

C   G  Am  F  C   G   Em    F

Piano Outro: Just a quick interpretation

Repeat until the end.
