Notes on the Tab:
*For the sake of time, I didn't really lable the chords and just named them by the base,
in the diagrams, that is how I play them, and they are always played in that order.
*The notes in (x) are ones that I decide to play on whims to mix it up a little since it
a long song.
*Obviously this is a much simplified way of playing the song, and even more so, it is my
of playing the song, so change the chord figerings and plunkings to whatever you want.
**This song is meant for a piano, yet this tab is for a guitar.
**This tab is really just because I like playing the song, yet can't play piano.
Listening to the song should help you get the strumming.

A E the words flow D C decisions made E D idea's mine C A but the inspiration not A E dreams of hangers-on D C dreams of getting well E D spells of esmeralda C A amarose fortold G D C A splinters in the eye G D C A sentiments remain G D bones are never asked A C where are we going to G D it was never up to me C A and yet i pushed until it broke

A E i love the open road D C and all that it suggests E D wheelwagon dust C A weeds and infidelities A E and always swore our love D C never questioned why E D in a wooden house C A immovable and silent G D C A and drinking strawberry wine G D C A forever lost in town G D and through the sleeping streets A C nightbound and heavy G D wheels in a spoke C A just a spoken foreign sound

A E know my gates are high D C my friends even higher E D forgotten in my mind C A yet the scars still lingering A E cloud the blue skies D C i'm jealous of you birds E D was the only truth C A in a world full of words G D C A hear the prairie sound G D C A in a friend called neil G D the heart is pointed down A C but my spirit pointed up G D his voice the siren C A of greek mythology A E i pause with my pen D C i begin to defend E D every action taken C A every moment sealed A E when i was quick D C it coursed through open veins E D the will to live C A the urgency to move A E behind a panel door D C sealing cherry stain E D i played my guitar C A and lived those lonesome notes G D C A like a dog that's down G D C A in a corner just aside G D waiting to be called A C waiting to be yours G D ghosts of a machine C A without purpose or will

A E i'll often speak of you D C but the you was always me E D 'cause when i speak of me C A it's me i ask of you A E so let there be no truth D C just trickery in rhymes E D time the only thing C A waiting still is death G D C A i hope for resolution G D C A pray one defining moment G D pause without restraint A C barren without child G D a child is who i was C A a child is who i'll die G D (bar played with no lyrics) C A a child is who i'll die G D soot in my hair C A and stars in my hands G D soot in my hair C A and stars in my hands G D soot in my hair A C* and stars in my hands
