Notes:
* Acoustic Intro: Greg accents the Gb note (11) pretty heavily and Aaron’s chord changes
Match those accents.
* Bridge: The finger position for this section might be tough for some players. You can transpose this part
down to the D and G strings. I prefer this position. If you want the other position added just comment.
* Solo: I did the best I could here and will continue to work on it. If anyone can help
Or do a true GP of this song that would be awesome.

Onto a higher ground, a youthful lie, no warning, death
Hiding is truth in all us
Another fired down, do or die it's just despair
Hiding the truth in all us
