Lyrics:
How could you understand... they way I feel about G-d?
How could you understand... anything about me at all?
I am the wind singing a sad song,
I am a volcano, and i'll hurt you all...
My pride ripped a whole in the world
that set loose a shadow.
How could you understand the way I feel about G-d?
How could you understand anything about me at all?
I am the wind singing a sad song,
I am a volcano, and i'll hurt you all!
Billows and billows!
Watch the smoke rise!
I sail into the jaws of the dragon,
a beast before me, a shadow behind me
and the only certainty, is they'll hurt you all!
-----------------------------------------------
Piano tabs:
I made my system up for the last tabs I made (Like Two Stones by Daniel Bryant),
they're pretty simple:
1|A B# A B#
1|E (x8) E (x8) E (x8) E (x5.5)
1| C# C# C# C#
The "1" that replaces letters in guitar tabs on the left side represent which octave the note is on,
I start the octave at the C note and end it the next B note, all the notes on the piano in this song
are on the same octave, so they all have the "1" on the left side.
The letters are the notes you play, the higher the note, the higher it is on the page, other than that, piano tabs are just like guitar tabs.
