Tabbed by Oliver Keeble

Here's the riff; it's done with a D shape, going to 4 then removing
your first finger to make G; then lots of hammer-ons.

D5                   G5
Hometown, same town blues
D5                      G5
Same old walls closing in
D5                         G5
Oh what a life a mess can be
D5
I'm sitting here thinking of you once again
          G5
Won't you talk to me

D5 D5 G5 C5 D5 D5 G5 C5

      D5
Well, time won't wait, better open the gate
D5
Get up and start what needs to be done

D5 D5 G5 C5

D5
It's winding down, there's much you missed
D5
Working on that graveyard shift

D5 D5 G5 C5 D5 D5 G5 C5

A5             G5                      A5            G5
Well, I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along
A5         G5      A5            G5          D5
If what I see is true I could learn to believe
G5          D5
Can't look away
G5             D5           G5      D5
The powers that be might take it all away
  A5                 G5                D5
Together we burn, together we burn away



Some say a land of paradise
Some say a land of pain
Well, which side are you looking from
Some people have it all
Some ?all to gain?

Well a man in a tie'll bum your dime
'Fore he breaks his twenty dollar bill
There's plenty of reasons in this world
We're no longer standing still
But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along
If what I see is true I could learn to believe
Can't look away
The powers that be might take it all away
Together we burn, together we burn away

There's too much time spent looking for a reason
It's the simple ones that ?beat? the most truth
Oh, what a life a mess can be
I'm sitting here thinking of you once again
Give a thought to me

Well, time won't wait, better open the gate
Get up and start what needs to be done
It's running down, there's much you missed
Working on that graveyard shift

But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along
If what I see is true I could learn to believe
Can't look away
The powers that be might take it all away
Together we burn, together we burn away

Notes

For the D G/D bit the following sounds best to me

For the D D4 D Dbend bit play open chords and just pick the first bit,
then bend the top 3 strings (ie the fretted ones) up.
