Artist:Blyss/Bliss(also known as Lifehouse) Song:Eighties Tabbed by:Colgate Maclay This is one of the unreleased songs from Lifehouse.It was written back in the Blyss/ Bliss-time and recorded for "Diff´s lucky day".I´m quite sure this tab is right...at least it sounds right to me.So here it comes:

      E -------------------0---

      B ------1---1----------1- 
      G --------0--------0-----         2x

Verse1: C (play the tabs everytime in the verses) When you find your castle on a hill With the bars on the windows Will you burn the bridge behind you? Will you ever come out and see the
         Am                   F
       sun again? Will you hide?

           Am
       Now how long has it been 

             G
       since you´ve seen the light?

Verse2:    C
       Make your way on the stairs to the top of your tower.
Stonecold floors,hardwood doors lead you to your room
            Am
       of plastic flowers

            Am                F
       They still look the same. 

           Am              G
       Drendged in water.It comforts you to think that they´re alive.
Chorus:(either you play in chords or in tabs-I think in chords sounds better)
        C          Em                    Am
       It could have been easier than this.

         Am                F                       C
       If you threw it all away what would you miss?

        C                 Em                         Am
       It could have been too much of a chance to take.

          Am               F                  C
       The silence in your head would have to break.

         C         Em             Am
       Your grip is slipping faster.

         Am                      F                    C
       Looks like you´ll have to face yourself after all.
Note:Play the last chord C like the intro again.
Verse3:        C
       Step outside the shadows of your cage.
Strangled truth, stolen youth is written on every line
            Am
       of every page.

          Am           F
       It´s your story.

              Am
       Do you want it back?
G ( 2x-but without the 5 last tones of the tab) You have to decide if it´s worth it.
            Em (2x)
       Swim across the swamp to the other side.

            Am
       Run until your out of breath

           Am
       When you look back there´ll be nothing left
G (once-with the 5 last notes again) but a memory fading quickly.
Chorus:   C         Em                  Am
       It could have been easier than this....
Play the chorus twice. End on the C-tabs (Outro = Intro) ...You´re welcome!
