Tuning: Drop D

I'll make this a simple as possible, im sure it's not absolutely perfect, but at least
be able to play the song in case you're totally stumped, it's pretty easy to catch onto
a while anyway. Pretty much all the riffs are based off of the D minor chord. mostly in 
sweep-picking fashion.


        Five words.. five words is all it would take.. heart and  mind

VERSE 1
D5                                    Bb5             Am5
Alone? Alone? All alone you have this conversation to satisfy your most
G5        F5     D5
intimate inner thoughts.
                              B5
Then you bite your lip when it matters most.
               A5
A shade of red in sight.
                         G5
Can you taste the blood?
         F5        D5
Taste it on your lips.


CHORUS

D5
Rip the seam.
           B5      F5                           G5
Then I?ll show you how the strings become the stitches in your mouth.
D5                     B5
In your silence we are louder.
F5                            G5               D5
When the strings become the stitches in your mouth.

VERSE 2:
D5             B5           A5                       G5      F5         D5
Your growing imagination preparing you for what your heart requires to say.
                              B5
Then you bit your lip when it matters most.
                 A5
A shade of red in sight.
                        G5         F5       D5
Can you taste the blood? Taste it on your lips.

Bridge is the same as the intro

the YOU'RE WORTH MORE THAN THIS part is all D5 and the riff at the end of that is just
down the main riff a couple of times.

btw theres a part in the second and last chorus where he make this cool slide
to do that just start on the third fret, slowly slide up and end on the 9th fret with him.

hope this helps you figure this out, I know there really wasn't a tab for this until
so if you were stumped before, now you can play along with it. If you have any comments or
send me an email.
Amazing song by the way, one of my favorites. Peace out
~Crash
