Audioslave - Shape Of Things To Come guitar tab
___________________________
/ Audioslave / I think this song is about Cornell's speculations
/ Shape of Things To Come / about the future for him and his family. Note the
/ Revelations / family that he mentions in most of his lyrics on
/__________________________/ Revelations. On the dvd that follow with the cd, he says
that now that he has become a father, he now writes his
lyrics from the view of his family and not himself as a single person anymore, sweet isn't it?
Intro:
The distorted guitar (in drop-d tuning of course) is overdubed here

" When it's late in the hour
And a few more grains of sand will fall
On the colourful flowers
Grown upon the dust and moss
Now I fear the worst is near
I hold them close and count their years
I pray a ray of light appears
To shine down on us here "

But I'm moving on like a soldier
And I'll say it now, when all is said and done

" There's a crack in the clouds
But only for a moment now
Like an eye looking out
The blue sky spies the roads we will go down
I wonder what they hold for us
I hold my family to my breast
I fear the worst and hope the best
Will come to see us blessed "

(Morello uses a harmoniser that produces random notes (I think),
the point is however just to make it sounds weird - his speciality)
