lyrics
verse 1-Tell your friends not to think outloud, until they swallow.
              Whisper things into my brain, your voice sounds so hollow.
              I am not a leader of men, since I prefer to follow.
              Do you think I could ever drink, since it's so hard to swallow?
              yeah, so hard to swallow

verse 2-Turn your television off, and I will sing a song.
              And if you suddenly have the urge, well you can sing along.
              I touch your hands, touch your face, I think the fruit is rotten.
              Give me lessons on how to breathe, cause I think I've forgotten.
              yeah, think I've forgotten

verse 3-oooh, Wandering out to a cliff, that overlooks the water.
             I dreamed, I'd see a girl, she was somebody's daughter.
             But now rain, is on my head, was given to me by her.
             And in this dream we all sit around, and dream of ways to get higher.
             yeah, to get much higher

verse 4-same as verse 1
h=hammer on
This is the acoustic version of the song.  I don't know if it's the same as the other, I've
only heard the other one once before, and wasn't really paying attention to what they
played.

Song order is as follows:
intro-rhy fig 1
verse 1-fig2(gtr 1) and fig 3(gtr 2)
chorus-rhy fig 5
verse 2-rhy fig 2(gtr 1) and rhy fig 4(gtr 2)
chorus-rhy fig 5
between verse 2&3-rhy fig 6
verse 3-rhy fig 7
between verse 3 and 4-rhy fig 1
verse 4-rhy fig 7
ending-rhy fig 8, then ending


All of these are chords.  It comes out as picking, but it's not.  It's all 2 strings at a time.  I don't know why the tabs came
out like this, but it should be an E G D E, then G A chord progression throughout the whole song basically.  There isn't any
independent picking in the verse.
