   An awesome song, I must admit.  Very powerful,
musically and lyrically.  This is not the easiest
guitar song on the record, but not the hardest.

Drop D tuning, 1/2 step down

Db
Ab
Db
Gb
Bb
eb

intro...  This riff is played a lot throughout the
song. so listen for it... This is also the ending
of the song, the E and the bending of the note not
the Bb and C.

The solo, is basically lots of distortion and feedback.
I believe that he is also playing some really high notes.

                          something like that, although
                             i'm not 100% sure...





  I know I should have told you

  But I was so afraid you'd leave

  And now there's nothing left to say

  Well nothing that you'd believe

 E                       E
  I never meant to hurt you

          E                    Bb  C G
  With the things I couldn't say

 E                      E
  I promise you tomorrow while

     E            Bb  C G
  Denying you today


  E                    D
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  A                    C
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  E                    D                A
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  C        G


  A darkness grows inside me

  In fading shades of grey

  All the colors in the world

  Are slowly sucked away

  E                      E
  And i'm sinking ever deeper

       E                          Bb  C G
  To a place that's cold and black

  E                     E
  I can't believe i've lost you

     E                      Bb  C G
  And your never coming back


  E                    D
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  A                    C
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  E                    D                A
  These lies they've torn my world apart

   C         G     E                   E
  Torn my world apart



  Soon the night will take me

  And save me from my pain

  Cloak me in cold darkness

  And help me lose your name


  E                    D
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  A                    C
  These lies they've torn my world apart

  E                    D                A
  These lies they've torn my world apart

   C           G     E
  Torn my world apart

  E                   E
  Torn my world apart

  E                E
  Torn my world apart
