[Verse with main repeating riff]
I don't feel as if I know you, you take up all my time
The days are long and the nights will throw you away
coz the sun don't shine
Nobody ever mentions the weather can make or break your day
Nobody ever seems to remember life is a game we play

F G A(SLOW BEND)
NOTE: THAT FLASHY RIFF CAN BE PLAEYD BOTH WAYS. IF YOU LISTEN
HARD YOU CAN HERE BOTH HIGH AND LOW PARTS. HE BE USING AN OCTAVE
PEDAL FOR THE SECOND WAY BUT I'VE NEVER USED ONE SO I COULDN'T TELL.
BUT THERE IS ANOTHER WAY I THINK YOU CAN PLAY IT BY USING A WHAMMY
PEDAL. I CAME ACROSS AN ARTICLE IN GUITAR WORLD(JUNE 96) WHERE TOM
MORELLO EXPLAINS HOW ON SONGS LIKE BULLS ON PARADE (THE MAIN RIFF)
HE GOT THE TWO OCTAVES. HE JUST SET THE PEDAL 2 OCTAVES UP WHILE THE
PEDAL IS DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY FORWARD, WHICH MEANS EVERYTHING PLAYED
IS TWO OCTAVES HIGHER. SO TRY THAT AND SEE HOW IT SOUNDS.
Legend:
H* harmonic
p=pull off
h=hammer on
/=slide
bh=bend halfway
