Finally, an acoustic song! of course, that's excluding Disarm...

This song is actually pretty easy, if you disregard the violin & cello..

Main riff:

|--repeat 3x----|

--1/3--3-3/7-7--|--5--8--8---8--8--8---8--8---

play this main acoustic riff throughout most of the song, or play the chords

marked in the lyrics....

[riff]

Feel it break your bones mr. jones

Taste me as I bleed, taste my need

G Am(i) Em(i)

Spaceboy, I've missed you, spinning round my head

C(i) G D Em

Anyway you choose me, I break instead

[riff]

Watch me, death defy, defile my life

I don't need, if I don't care

Please I want to go home..I want to go home..

I want to go home, I want to go home

Cause when a lover aches, that's when a lover breaks

I want to go home, I want to go home...

Now just play the following riff twice for the instrumental:

Before I'm dead and gone

C(i) G

And anyway they choose me,

D

We won't be long...
