* Note: Play these notes soft and faster after sweeping down.
They are quiet and quick but are there, and I believe
played by another guitar, but it sounds alright with
them in.

Also - riffs will be referred to as "R".

The song is fairly easy, it's two riffs the entire thing.

Silver scents of Saint Augustine.

If i stayed behind,

Would you let your hair grow?

Let's bury ourselves,
R2
and go haunt someone tonight.
