you were gone
when we found you
you were practically surrounded, you were trapped
but the opposition stalled, the blood ran cold
when they saw the look of love in your eye
maybe the times we had they weren't that bad
and everything else was part of the plan
and we sang "i don't know where we go"
from the alpha, the omega, the beginning and the end
and we all just idolize the dead
so you were born and that was a good day
and someday you'll die and that is a shame
yeah but somewhere in the between you'll live a life of which we all dream
and nothing and no-one will ever take that away
you had a love
and that love had you
and nothing mattered you were fine
some will complain they're just bitter what a shame
they know that loving and losing is better than nothing at all
may-be the times we had they weren't that bad
and everything else was part of the plan
and we sang "i don't know where we go"
from the anthem the slogan the summary of events
and we all just idealize the past
so you were born and that was a good day
and someday you will die and that is a shame
yeah but somewhere in the between you'll live a life of which we all dream
and nothing and no-one will ever take that away
yeah someday soon my friend this life will come to an end
but we can't just get in line again
Notes:
*the whole song should be played at a slow-medium tempo -- take your time and enjoy the song.
*the introduction is highly stylized. tom puts lots of little fills between chord
sequences. try some!
*tom plays a lick during the intro and several times in the song between chords Am
G and F that looks something like this:
F
e|------------|
B|----------1-|
G|---2--0--2--|
D|--2--2--3---|
A|-0----------|
E|----3--1----|
basically it's just a walk down from the A to the F. not super difficult. kind of quick.
maybe finger pick it?
*the second verse is played as follows:
G
|--------------------------------------------------|
|-1-----1-------1-------------1-----4------5-----3-|
|-0-----0-------0------0------2-----5------5-----4-|
|-2-----0------(2)-----0------3-----6------5-----5-|
|-3-----2-------0------2------3-----6------3-----5-|
|----------------------3------1-----4------3-----3-|
protip: add some panache. strum these chords with confidence and rhythm.
*the end is played kind of like this:
C
|------------------|
|----------------1-|
|----0----------0--|
|---2-----0----2---|
|-3------2---3-----|
|------3-----------|
again just kind of a little walk uphill. not fast. take yr time. or change the end to
suit yr own playing skill/style!
