Then the chords and the lyrics come in.
[G] [C]So, so you think you can t[D]ell
heaven from h[Am]ell, blue sky from pa[G]in. Can you tell a green fi[D]eld, from a
cold steel ra[C]il, a smile from a va[Am]il? Do you think you can te[G]ll?
Did they get you t[C]rade, your heros for gh[D]osts, hot ashes for t[Am]rees, hot air
[G] [D] [C]
the part of the w[Am]ar, for a lead role in the c[G]age.
Fill1 is played here again along with the solo.
the solo will be added soon, i haven't yet perfected it yet.
H[C]ow i wish, how i wish you were he[D]re. We're just [Am]two lost souls swimming
in a fish bowl,[G] year after year.[D] Running over the same old ground,[C] but have
we found the same old fea[Am]rs, wish you were he[G]re.
second solo played, very identical to the first solo, with a few alterations.
i will add that also
