Tune down half step (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb) but play chords as if in

standard tuning

Intro: D C# C A

Lead Riff: Bb|-----12b-(14)-12-----

Verse 1:

D C# C A

When I waken, And I'm achin', Time for sleepin', yeah

D C# C

A When I'm sayin', Time

to go and, I've been hurtin', yeah

D F# C A

When I'm layin', I'm still trying, Concentrating on dyin', yeah

Chorus:

D F# F A (pick out, don't strum)

D

You're right as rain

F#

But you're wrong to blame

F A

Agreed my crime's the same

D

My sin's I'll claim

F#

Give you back shed pain

F A

Go find a place for own shame, yeah

D

So you can deal

F#

With this thing unreal

F A

No one made you feel any hurt, yeah

Verse 2:

Body's movin', Only Provin',

No one heeds to move

Still believin', Yet mistaken,

All God's children, yeah

And I must say, I was stupid

Selfishly she consumed, yeah

Chorus:

And you must change, patterns all we trained

or n'er regain peace you seek

Now you hear me, for the things I see

Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah

Bridge:

D C G D

Throw out, Blow up, Hold in

D C G D A

Show fine, No signs, Grow Blind

Any corrections welcome. This is my first posting, so forgive me for not
