| The Refrain uses the same chords, but is strummed with the following |
| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a |
| s s s s e _ s e _ s s s s s s s |
| You can mess around with this pattern a little bit as the muse inspires |
| you, but since repetition is what really drives this song, you should |
| The part that was listed as the "guitar into" on your web page is |
| basically it. That part is also played during the first two verses. If |
| you want to give your second guitarist a little more to do, they can strum |
| along with the Guitar 1 during the refrain using another chord voicing. I |
| personally like this one (do not strum either E-string): |

| The meat & potatoes of this song, but not too tough to play. You may want |
| to let some of the vocal duties be handled by the bassist (but *not* the |
| spoken word part! The bass must stay on the beat, and the spoken vocals |
| must remain independent of it... This can become a lot like the old "pat |
| your head and rub your stomache" trick). |
| During the into & verses, stay put on the low G (yes, you are a petal |
| tone) using the following rhythm: |
| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a |
| For the refrain, play on G for the first measure, C on the second, and |
| back to G for the next two, using the following rhythm (mess around with it |
| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a |

| There are also two bass fills that are used un the refrian, both at the |
| end of a phrase. The first, and more frequest, is this: |
e |3---3-33-30-1-2|
| The other is simply a desending G-maj scale: |
g |----------------|
d |----54-2--------|
a |---------5-3-2--|
e |3-3-----------5-|
| These fills can be inserted at will during the refrain, as long as some |
| tasteful restraint is used. |
| Her world collapsed early Sunday morning. |
| She got up from the kitchen table, |
| folded the newspaper and silenced the radio. |
| Those creatures jumped the barricades |

| Those creatures jumped the barricades |
| and have headed for the sea. |
| She began to breathe, to breathe at the thought of such freedom, |
| stood and whispered to her child, belong. |
| She held the child and whispered with calm, calm; |
| She stood and whispered to her child, belong. |
| She held the child and whispered with calm, calm; |
| Those barricades can only hold for so long. |
| Her world collapsed early Sunday morning. |
| She took the child, held tight, opened the window; |
| a breath, this song, how long, and knew, knew; belong. |
