| | The | timi | ng | is | dif | ficult | to | show | on | th | is, | but if you listen to the intro |
| you can figure it out. Basically play a few D#'s, then C#'s, then almost |
| repeat the pattern but quickly come back for a D# instead of the last C#. |
| The little filler notes (FILL) are just a little "tickling" of the first |
| two strings (e and B) held at the 8th fret (just mash down your third |
| finger which should be on the 8th fret from playing the D# anyway). |
| Well my eyelids said four-thirty |

| I might have slept til yesterday |

| I | saw a stranger smiling at me | yesterday |
| | A# | D# |
| | And it scared me almost half to | death |
