Marillion - Happiness Is The Road
=================================

Tabbed by Mike C (smilock@hotmail.com)

Tab Explanation
===============

\       Slide
h       Hammer-on
p       Pull-off
T       Tap
B       Bend the note to the fret after the B
R       Release back to the originally bent note
A.H.    Artificial Harmonic
m       Palm Muted
//      Trem Pick (Pick as fast as possible)

Lots of instruments in this track hidden all over the place. I've done my best
to pick out the guitar parts and which is playing at each point but it's 
hard when you only have the mp3 version :(. I've also tried to indicate ROUGHLY
what chords are played at various points to give an indication for timing etc
Any suggestions will be welcomed! 

Gtr. 1 - Clean Electric
Gtr. 2 - Overdriven Electric
Gtr. 3 - Distorted Electric
Gtr. 4 - Slightly overdriven electric
Gtr. 5 - Clean w/Tremolo
Gtr. 6 - Overdriven Electric (w/slide)

These guitar sound specs should be interpreted loosely :)

Intro (Haven't bothered tabbing these parts)
=====

The greatest blessing that we have
Is the dawn of each new day
A chance to finish what we started
And made a mess of yesterday
As day comes out of night
A chance to get it right
A chance to start again
A chance to get it right

The people here
Full of love and comfortable in themselves
Not scared to let go
No fear round here

Verse
=====
I met this man
In Utrecht Netherlands
He was a doctor of the body and the soul
He said to me:
Man, there's a book you have to read.

Bridge Part 1
=============
You're focussing on all of your bad yesterdays
The worry lines are getting deeper every day
And deep inside you
No surprise - there's a crisis!
You might have been to blame
But you can't go on this way
Must I watch and pray?

Bridge Part 2
=============
While you torture yourself with what's behind ya
Torture yourself with what awaits ya
Draggin' that guilt and regret inside ya
Anxious of the goals that always evade ya
