This riff composes pretty much the whole song, with some hammer ons added to the

second and last chord shapes.

Lyrics, for added convenience, are as follows, and are organized per riff(So for

each line written, you play the riff once.) You should be able

to pick up the tempo fairly quickly, it's pretty straightforward.

(Riff x2)

I'm thinking it's a sign that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images and when

we kiss they're perfectly aligned

and I have to speculate that god himself did make us into corresponding shapes like

puzzle pieces from the clay

and true, it may seeem like a stretch, but it's thoughts like this that catch my

troubled head when you're away when I am missing you to death

when you're there on the road for several weeks of shows and when you scan the

radio I hope this song will guide you home

(CHORUS)

They will see us waving from such great heights, come down now, they'll say

but everything looks perfect from far away, come down now, but we'll stay

I try my best to leave this all on your machine but the persistent beat it

sounded thin upon listening

and that frankly will not fly, you will hear the shrillest highs and lowest

lows with the windows down when this is guiding you home

(CHORUS)

they will see us waving from such great heights, come down now they'll say

but everything looks perfect from far away, come down now, but we'll stay

(Riff x1 as everything fades out, and end on the final chord as listed above)

--

There's an EXTREMELY high pitched little part at the end, but I just can't manage

to play this without retuning my guitar.

In the spirit of trying to keep things simple, I've omitted this entirely. To sum

things up, this is a great song. Very soft, very mellow.

I think my tab's fairly accurate, please rate away.
