Open Your Eyes  Guano Apes

Hi! This a TAB for a big HIT from the german breaktrough band
Guano Apes. Tabbing it was quite hard and I'm not completely sure
about everything, especially the bridge is weird. But if you've got
a nice wammy pedal, you'll be able to figure it out. Enjoy this or
flame me, but please tell me what you think!!
Spoken(dist.): Hide your face forever, dream and search forever
Intro(4 times):
(play with wahwah effect and Guit.2 only the first two times)

(play above over those lyrics)
Have you ever been for sale? When your isms get smart
Oh so selfish and mindless with that comment in your eye
Do you think that you are hard? Really harder than the other
Man you're acting cold if you are not in charge
Don't split your mentality without thinking twice
Your voice's got no reasons

Trapped in yourself, break out instead
Beat the machine that works in your head

Verse 2:
(play same pattern as Verse 1 w/lyrics:)
Will you offer me some tricks, if I ever need them
Would you go into that room, if I call 'em
Do you think that you are better, really better than the rest
Realize there's a problem, I know that you can give your best
Have you ever had a dream? Or is life just a trip?
A trip without chances
