Bm (x24432@1)     GInto (320003@1)the flood again
G (320003@1)                 Bm (x24432@1)  GSame (320003@1)old trip it was back then
Bm (x24432@1)        BmSo (x24432@1)I made a big mistake
G (320003@1)           Bm (x24432@1)    GTry (320003@1)to see it once my way

go back to the opening riff and play it once, then move on to the second verse, 
just like the first, different lyrics:


     Drifting bodies Sole desertion       Flying not yet quite the notion
D-----------------------------------2-------------------------------------2-|
A-2h4~2h4~2-2~~~----2h3~2h3~2-2~~~-2--2h4~2h4~2-2~~~------2h4~2h4~2-2~~~-2--|

go back to the opener riff, then to the third chorus:



Bm (x24432@1)     GInto (320003@1)the flood again
G (320003@1)                 Bm (x24432@1)  GSame (320003@1)old trip it was back then

now it's on to the bridge and the outro:
