ugh the riff.
I'm watching y
ou walk as you
walk that dis
tant way
Take that thin
g away from me
take away mos
t everything
I couldn't say
I'd blame you
or you should
never look in
back
You wouldn't b
e to blame if
you couldn't t
ake it back
[Chorus]
Hours slipping
by as you wat
ch the worlds
collide
Now you're not
hing more than
another passe
rby
The dark it tu
rns to light i
n a distant fl
ash of night
Rolling with t
he tide I conf
ide the act we
wear it thin
again
I think that on the album, these are played as E-shape barre chords
(similar to the verse riff, but less restrained), but I play them as open
position chords to go easy on my left hand.
INTRO RIFF 4 TIMES
The other verses and choruses are played with the same riffs:
If affection holds you back then what is left to hold
If I could find the answer to that question then I'd know
The thoughts that clutter up your mind and leave me feeling drained
And walking pacing up the walls across the floor again
CHORUS:
All the things I haven't seen once the final curtain has been raised
The act we act is wering thin the act we act we under my skin
The words the words we said goodbye the words left choking in my mind
The act we act is wering thin I think we wear it out again
SOLO: Play the verse riff under any lead you'd like :)
OUTRO CHORUSES:
Another big explosion leaving you hoping
That something that once held you down could leave you feeling on the ground
The confusion that persists decisions that you guessed
The one to stay and watch this the one you might have missed
REPEAT 2ND CHORUS
CONTINUE PLAYING CHORUS FIGURE:
Forming a conclusion
And you're left standing
PLAY INTRO RIFF 4 TIMES
End on E5 chord.
