 Verse 1

 Hey there you, way out there in the distance
 can you here me?  Are you there?
 I know it's late so please forgive my persistance
 but I'm hanging, do you care?

 So lay back
 call of the attack
 Cause if you look deep dreams are nothing that I lack
 And all I seek
 is a final chance to speak
 And I would let the whole thing keep---

 If I could just sleep


 Verse 2

 Hey there you, way out there could you show me
 just a signal, or a sign?
 That after all, all these years that you've known me
 that I'm not just, killing time.

 So lay back
 call off the attack
 Cause if you look deep dreams are nothing that I lack
 And all I seek
 is a final chance to speak
 And I would let the whole thing keep---

 If I could just sleep


 And as I lay there late at night
 building castles in the air
 All those alibis and all those little lies
 then I look inside and pray that I don't care....

 I don't care

 I don't care

 Hey there you, way out there in the distance....

-------------------------------------------------------------

That's about it.  If I've butchered the song or lyrics in any
way, I'm sorry.  This is a really cool song to sit around and
play.  I hope someone appreciates this tab, and the band.
Long live Criss!  He's a hell of a player!
