tabbed by Dave Bloom

A most perfect song to end the album.. I love how the first
and last verse repeat to slow and then hardcore music... very
nice...I'm gonna do my best to try to make you understand the 
tab, it might be difficult, this song has lots of different
parts, if any questions just send me a letter...


Drop D Tuning

D
A
D
G
B
e



This is the main riff, it starts almost half way through the
song, and is played at many different parts. I'll call this riff
"D"

Repeat that a few times then play... to end the riff

--0-0-0-0-0-0-0---  -8-8-8-7-8-8-8-10-10-10-------

This little riff, is heard about three times through the song
I think you should be able to figure out when to play this...

Then the chorus is just an F and a G, with the D riff after it
in some parts...

There is also a little solo...
It basically revolves around these 2 notes

lyrics...


  I've been so alone for so long

  Forgotten by the world

  Forgotten to myself

  Your effervescent eyes have awakened me

  And brushed the dust away

  But I knew you'd never stay

  So I memorized the colors of your eyes

  As I lost myself inside you

  And I memorized the way our legs entwined

  As I drifted off beside you

  I miss

  God I miss

  Waking up beside you...


  At night I cling to you im so afraid

  Afraid the day will come

  And I'll wake and find you gone

  But you promise that you'd not abandon me

  And then kissed my fears away

  But I woke up to that day

  But I had memorized the way our eyes would meet

  Reflected in the bathroom mirror

  And I memorized your naked sihouette

  As you slowly brushed you hair down

  F
  I miss
          G
  God I miss
                    D
  Waking up beside you


  I've been alone for so long

  I forgot how much it hurts

  To wake up so alone

  But I'd memorize how warm your body felt

  As you lay half asleep beside me

  And I memorized the way the sunlight filled the room

  And placed upon your body


  F
  I miss
          G 
  God I miss
                      D 
  Waking up beside you 

  F
  I miss
          G
  God I miss
                      D
  Waking up beside you 

Thats it...
