It starts out with an acoustic strum and moves full swing into heart-wrenching territory. Basically, it begins with an acoustic strum of Am to C. The basic strum is Am / // / / / // / / C / // / / / // / This is played two times, then the two electric guitars, drums, and bass comes into play. While guitar 1 is playing A5 / // / / / // / / C5 / // / / / // /, guitar 2 is playing the riff on the A string: A5 C5 E --------------------------------------------------------------------- B --------------------------------------------------------------------- G --------------------------------------------------------------------- D --------------------------------------------------------------------- A -0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-10-10-10-10- E --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is played two times, the you play: D5 / // E5 / / F5 / // C5 / / G5 / // / / / // / / Then you play the A5, C5 part. This continues on until the song changes to a play on Em, G, and A chords. I think in the order of Em, G (3x) then A played 4 times. This is played again, and then the song goes back to A5, C5. I think it ends on strumming the G chord, although I am not too sure. I believe the lyrics are (I am not too sure about them, though): My mood was in full swing My mood was in full swing I wanted to be free Free to (walk so stale?) I did not want to hear The perfect thing to say Dying to squeeze out The ugly truth for everyone to hear I did not want to fight I did not want to kill I wanted to be real I wanted to believe That I was the only one alive The Chords Are: E A D G B E ----------- Am x 0 2 2 1 0 C x 3 2 0 1 0 A5 5 7 7 x x x C5 x 3 5 5 x x D5 x 5 7 7 x x E5 x 7 9 9 x x F5 1 3 3 x x x G5 3 5 5 x x x Em 0 2 2 0 0 0 G 3 2 0 0 3 3 A x 0 2 2 2 0
