The intro riff is played through almost the entire song
(This is one of the only two Tallman songs using 2 guitars)
Jay plays the intro, Paul plays the heavy stuff.
This is a guess:

Riff A again, with distortion, no open notes.
One note is played an extra time,
4:14 - 5:09 - I don't know
5:09 - 5:30 - Riff B
5:31 - 6:27 - I don't know

LYRICS:
in a darkened room, sun burned a hole in your eyes
afraid to leave the tomb, afraid to look at the sky
you will be waking soon, come on and open your eyes
you will be waking soon, come on see through the disguise
head in a grey balloon, waiting to witness a sign
head in a grey balloon, immune to passing of time
you will be waking soon, come on and open your eyes
you will be waking soon, come on see through the disguise
your hollow apathy, is not concerning me
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
question philosophy, reject hypocrisy
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
reaching out for something, something I cannot find
reaching out for someone, someone is left behind
your hollow apathy, is not concerning me
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
question philosophy, reject hypocrisy
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
come on and open your eyes
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TALLMAN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
