This song is a cool one, this is my favorite from the album. His guitar playing is
cool too, so I choose this one to tab since I can?t find a good transcription of
this song in the net. It took me a while to post this song ?coz I just learned how
to read the tablature (thanks to my friend Tristan for teaching me). The finger
picking is not 100% accurate ?coz this it?s just from memory, although the chords
are pretty much accurate. I tabbed this with no guitar on hand, so, please bear
with me. For comments, suggestions, revision, correction and insults pls. email
me at ebbskyz@yahoo.com.

        B(9)
   The strands in your eyes
        EM7(9)
   That color them wonderful
    B(9)                 F#/Bb-E/Ab
   Stop me and steal my breath
        B(9)
   And emeralds from the mountains
   EM7(9)
   Thrusts towards the sky
   B(9)                   F#/Bb-E/Ab
   Never revealing their depth.

Lyrics:
------

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth

Refrain:
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

Chorus:
And I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be loves suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life...

Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive not dead

	(Repeat Refrain & Chorus)

Bridge:
And I've dropped out, burned up,
I fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on,
Remembered the thing that you, you said...

		(Repeat Chorus 2x)

	The greatest fan of your life
	The greatest fan of your life?
