Verse 1
I've been asleep for a long, long time
Blond hair to brown and brown to white
My mom is buried beside my dad (?)
But I was asleep for all of that
Verse 2
The schools that I went to have all been closed
And all of my teachers are dead I suppose
The songs that we sung have all gone quiet
What happens below as you sleep at night?
em G C
I shut my eyes for a moment's rest
em G C (etc...)
'cause I get so tired
What things transpired while my body slipped
Beset my mind (?)
Interlude
Just fiddle around with picking the chorus chords for a few bars and then
sing to the same chords.
em G C (etc...)
The river's up, the reeds are cut
Halfway across what never was
The water rose and swept in slow
When the reeds awoke they were half below
After that it's the same chords while the string section works their magic,
followed by a harder rocking part again over the same basic chords. Feel
free to improv all you want as I have no idea how to tab it.

This song is pretty much all about the timing, so you'll have to play it a
Few times to really get it. Near the end when they repeat the first verse
they only play the very first part once as opposed the usual twice... but
that's hard to explain unless you listen to it and notice it. That may only
happen in the performance in the video from the ECMA's as well, I'm not
really sure. Also, I'm not too sure about some of the lyrics but those are
the closest words my ears could decipher so you'll just have to go with it
unless you know otherwise. Lastly, I left out some of Hogan's guitar parts
because I'm not good enough to tab them, go nuts figuring those out
yourself.
