When playing alone, switch from one riff to another (assuming that you are not capable of playing two guitars simultaneously :) *** Eternal thanks to Noam Chamiel and Ruth Cohen *** Riff #1: Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 Em7- A Riff #2: Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 Bm A Riff #1 is based on the tab e 0----2-3-2--0-----------| b -----------------3------| g ----------------------2-| Lyrics/Chords (from memory, so watch out for mistakes): Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 When routine bites hard Bm [Em7-] A And ambitions are low Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 And resentment rides high Bm [Em7-] A But emotions won't grow Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 And we're changing our ways Bm [Em7-] A Taking different roads Em D Dsus4 D Dmaj9 Bm A Love, love will tear us apart again Why is this bedroom so cold? You turned away on your side Is my timing that flawed? Am I feeling surprised? [in other versions: our respect runs so dry] Yet there's still this appeal That we've kept through our lives Love, love will tear it apart again You cry out in your sleep All my feelings exposed And there's a taste in my mouth As despiration takes hold Yet, that somehing's so good Just can't function no more, when Love, love will tear us apart again Cheers, o o ^ Rami.
