When I got this, after some time lol, I am quoted to say “AH-HA!! I ROCK” which I don’t but I’m slow so I’m pleased. But this next bit is SOLID to tab--- slow down Simon lol ok...I think it’s like this
Straight after the last riff go straight into this (fast)
(I’m not 100% sure but this is my best shot, hopefully someone will confirm or correct it)

Sorry guys but I’m being lazy, there are all the notes just work out the rest because it’s soooo much to tab :P
For the outro just play

Sorry bout the last bit but it’s a 5 minute song and that’s a lot of tab and it’s pretty simple to work out. If I can work it out, you genius’s can don’t worry :-D
However, any questions or queries either post them in the corrections box or email me - paddy_imho@hotmail.com
Please bare in mind this is my first tab ? so go easy, I’m also tone deaf haha and the endless rock concerts aren’t doing me any good and I’m still young so... I’m open for any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism thank you... bi now, cheers.
Lyrics
Would you change, I have, fallen in love with you, anyway
(there's something, there's something, there's something,
there's something, there's something, now)
Have a dance, I will, easily, lose it, anyway
(come dancing, come dancing, come dancing,
come dancing, come dancing, now)
Shouty Bit!
(If you can make out what they are saying then please mail me!)
In the shadows of your eyes,
you look like God, I will be right here
When your life's been shattered
rinse your emotion, i will be there
If even the stars, fall from your eyes
we fall back and burn in the night
reach with your mind, never goodbye
take me away from your arms
Winter's long dead, lovely construction,
it's all a part of you now
watching them go, your ghostly posession,
will always posess you
In the shadows of her eyes,
you look like God, I will be right here
When your life's been shattered
rinse your emotion, i will be there
If even the stars, fall from your eyes
we fall back, they burn in the night
reach with your mind, never goodbye
take me away from your arms
Infinity lies! Save yourself!
Infinity lies! Save yourself!
Yeh!
MON THE BIFFY!!
