I think the tab is not completely right, but it sounds close to what they really play.
someone sees any mistakes (or doesn't understand a thing of it): send me an email. I
it's good to listen to the song if you want to play it. And if you don't...listen to it
nyway...it's fantastic.

During the song you have to repeat the 2 parts of the intro, it's totally the same. But
Robert starts to sing:
'Everything was true it couldn't be a story
I wish it was all true I wish it couldn't be a story'
You have to play part 2 a little different:
e|---33333333--555555556666666666666666-------------------------------------|
B|---33333333--55555555-6666666666666666-------------------------------------|
G|---22222222--44444444------------------------2x----------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
After that everything's the same again. Just play these parts through the whole song and
the end you have to repeat the 2nd part 2 times.
