This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

For The solo, (I highly doubt this is right but this is how i do it) tremolo pick the

fret harmonic of the B string and the 7th fret harmonic of the high e string. BUT do not

them at once what you want to do is hit the B string for a little bit then move up to

e string for a sec. Try to use Variation and it will sound almost like Tom plays it.

Lyrics:

Satellites and mirrors and a man without a home

A horse and a rider and a clever cunning killer

Silent in error and vocal in spotlights

Lying always sucking on a bottle of that sweet indulgent fluid

Oh greed, oh yes, oh greed, oh yes

Your friendship is a fog

It disappears when the wind redirects

You, yes you

A father's expectations, soul soaked in spit and urine

And you gotta make it where

To a sanctuary that's only a fragile American hell

An empty dream, a selfish, horrific vision

Passed on like the deadliest of viruses

Crushing you and your naive compassions

So have no illusions boy

Vomit up all ideals and serve

Sleep and wake, and serve

Dont think just wake and serve

You friendship is a fog

It disappears when the wind redirects you

Interested in you, interested in you
