Transcription by Scott Josselyn (SBJosselyn@aol.com)
*Capo 1st Fret*
*All chords are relative to capo but all tab is relative
to nut (i.e. a "1" in tab is an "open" string)
Chords: G=320033 D/F#=200232 Em=0220(3)0 Cadd9=x32033
G/B=x20033 A7sus4=x02233 or 540055
A#6=650066 or x03366*
Cadd9(use this type to follow A#6)=870088 or xx5588*
*Guitar 2(Todd) plays arpeggios of these chords while Glenn
strums the rhythm with the first type
Todd's Riffs:
Riff 1 (intro and over 3rd chorus?)

Song opens with feedback on an open A chord then:
Intro:
G-D/F#-Em-Cadd9-G/B-A7sus4 x2
Verse:
open up and let me in
i was lucky to live, dont need to win
forgave myself and if that's a sin
it's not enough you'd even know it
you did right to call my bluff
'cause i wont say when i've had enough
and i worked so hard to need this stuff
and you tried so long to just ignore it
Chorus:
wont you come down where i am
word are hidden, understand
Verse:
i wont repeat myself again
i will not repeat myself again
it's another promise d.o.a.
and despite my every hope
there is no truth behind my best intentioned oath
Chorus:
won't you come down where i am
words are hidden, understand
G D/F# Em Cadd9 G/B A7sus4 (hold........)
won't you come down
(still holding A chord........)
been away too long i know i have
Solo*:

Chorus:

i know i've been away to long
i know i have
*the solo sounds like at least 4 guitars.. one playing rythmn one
playing riff 2 and two others that i tired to tab as one guitar...
