Was feeling kind of optimistic Christmas Eve Eve (this is not a typo) so I decided to
out some songs from one of my fav. Porcupine Tree albums, "Lightbulb Sun". This is one of
few I'm going to tab out, along with "Four Chords that Made a Million" and "Hatesong".
also already tabbed out "Russia on Ice" prior, so be sure to check that one out as well.
All of the tabs that do exist for these songs, as far as I've seen, are Pro-Tabs, making
very depressing for people who do not have the software. I'm offering an alternative to this.
Seeing as this album is out of print, I found it disappointing that there were hardly
worthwhile tabs for this extraordinary album. That's why I've decided to focus on this
rather than others, but songs from other albums are most likely on their way. (Signify,
Absentia, Deadwing among others)
This is a very easy song to play, and good for people who are still new to guitar. I DID
TAB THE SOLO (at the end). I'm much too lazy. I'm also not
100% sure the chorus is correct, but I think it sounds right.
Be sure to check out my other tabs by clicking on my user name in the top right. There
be more to come, just be patient....
By the way, be sure to spread the word that Porcupine Tree actually exists. I didn't
about them until fairly recently and they've quickly become my 2nd favorite band (next to
of course). More people need to know about this amazing group. They deserve so much more
popularity, and fans than they have.
You all know the legend.
Gtr. I: Electric, clean.
Gtr. II: Accoustic.
Gtr. III: Electric with distorion and a lot of"fuzz". Listen to the song and
you'll know what I mean.

Lyrics:
"You move in waves
You never retrace
Your newest craze
Straight out of the face by the bed unread"
"I'm left behind
Like all the others
Some fall for you
It doesn't make much difference if they do"
CHORUS:
Gtr. II: (1:07)
