so this is my 1st guitar tab. i have listened to this song alot and i think i have 
it out. sorry if its wrong, but even if it is it still goes with the song :P

x - numbed ( muted )
/ - silde
h - hammer on
p - pull off
^ - bend

so i've took the sounds from the keyboard and put them in this tab so you dont have to 
for ages and miss out a good bit of the song. listen  to the song to get the pace and 
right.

intro ( keyboard and up to the last " can you read my mind " )

repeat chorus ( slip in my faith until i fall, you neven returned that call ) replace 
part at the end with a repeat of what you would normaly play 4 times. in other words, play 
1st 3 parts 4 times instead of the last part.


repeat intro twice


repeat verse 2 untill fade.

this is a hard song to lern but it becomes instinctive after 2 or 3 play throughs. just 
it in chunks instead of trying to learn all of it at once.

and hi dad!
