-|-7-7-------------7-7-------------|-
-|-5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----|-

You know what makes me happy? The things that make you sad. 
The fear that i controls absorbed by the radio jag.
(rest a beat)
-------------------------------------------------------------

this next part is arranged for both guitars, at the same time:

the first guitar plays the main riff somewhat distant, partially 
palm muted i think.
Deron and chad play these riffs at the same time.
Chad/guitar 2 plays the main riff Palm muted, while Deron/ guitar 2
plays the other riff. the riffs are placed over each other,
and the lines that cross them indicates what you play at the same time.

play this x4 times.

I found my indecision. The product of the media grime.
The fear that i control, have you press rewind.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Verse 2 (slow verse) play twice


-|--------------------------------|-

-|--------------------------------|-
-|---3-----------------------5----|-
-|---3-----------------------5----|-
-|---1-----------------------3----|-
 And now i'm on the wings
Hoping that you'll hear. Don't bother to respond.
You love to hear me again.

0:58 And when the sun beams down all of my lies.
     close close, yeah close the lights
  
  2x:
-|-----------------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------3-1-0-1-0-----------------3-1-0-/5--|-
-|--1-1-1-1-1-1-1------------3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----------|-

note: this riff was  extremely challenging to tab,
but it goes well with the mix. although, i doubt
that it is correct.
----------------------------------------------------------------

then Guitar one plays main riff once,
and guitar 2 plays the solo, with fuzz and wah:

-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|--10-10-9-9-7-7-9-9-10-10-12-12-10-10-9-9------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-

-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|--10-10-9-9-7-7-9-9-10-10-12-12-10-10-9-9------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-

-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|--10-10-9-9-7-7-5-5-7-7-9-9-10/----------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------------|-

While the second guitar plays the solo, the first guitar
plays this (bridge)

-|----------------------|-
-|----------------------|-
-|----------------------|-
-|----------------------|-
-|-5-5------------3-3---|-
-|------6-6--3-3--------|-

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Then play the main riff 4 times 
The sky's all grey in the barracks.
i know i'm a lousy hero. The classic act of feelings
that of a memory.
And you are peering down through parascopic eyes
close close, yeah close the light.
     (taking time to stand upon my conscience)

------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus, Repeat twice:

-|---------------------------------------------------------|-
-|---------------------------------------------------------|-
-|--3-3--7-7-7--5-5----------------------------------------|-
-|--3-3--7-7-7--5-5----------------------------------------|-
-|--1-1--5-5-5--3-3----------------------------------------|-

-|---------------------------------------------------------|-
-|------------------33333333333333333333333333333333-------|-
                    \________PALM MUTE_____________/ < these notes kinda sounds like harmonics. i dunno.

I try to hide the fact that i'm afraid.
we'll drive the band to shippensburg and hope that we get played.
(Rest for a beat.)

------------------------------------------------------------------

Bridge, Part A:

-|------------------------------------|-
-|------------------------------------|-
-|------------------------------------|-

-|--5-5-5-5-------------------3-3-3-3-|-
-|----------6-6-6-6--3-3-3-3----------|-

-|--------------------------------------|-
-|--------------------------------------|-
-|--9-9--------------7-7----------------|-
-|--7-7--10-10--7-7--5-5----------------|-
-|--------8--8--5-5---------------------|-

Play part A again, then part B,
and finally, Part A four times.


Main Riff 4 times
And in the end of a season. the voices
turn it all off. the things that were so meaningless
'till the next one comes along


Chorus, play twice

I try to hide the fact that i'm afraid.
we'll drive the band to Shippensburg and hope that 
we get played.


Variation of the last bit of the chorus:

-|-----------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------|-
-|-3-1-3--1-3-1-3---6-5-6--5-6-5-6---|-

-|-----------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------|-
-|-----------------------------------------|-
-|--8-6-8--6-8-6-8--15-13-15--13-15-13-15--|-
                                         thats good.
