Any comments, questions or corrections would greatly be appreciated. So E-Mail me if you want to! *****the tone of the instrument which comes in after the intro is so weird-and cool! I can't tell if it's a guitar or an organ.(it said in the liner notes that a guy played organ for one song) In any case I arranged it for guitar.******* */*/*/* NOTE */*/*/* When **** is next to a chord it means that there are 4 muted 16th note slashes using the G-chord Starting on the 4th beat. Example: 1 2 3 4 e a u / / / / INTRO Em B C G Guitar 2 (or organ) fades-in on last beat of intro riff 1 E---------------------------------------------------------- B---------------------------------------------------------- G-9---11-12-8---11-8-9----------------------------------9-- D--------------------------10-12-----9-10------------------ A---------------------------------10----------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------- Verse Em B C G In my silence I would love to forget Em B C G But restitution hasn't come quite yet D And with one accord I keep moving forth Em C5 I stretch my heart to heal some more Chorus G Em C5 It used to be all I wanted to learn G **** Was wisdom trust and truth G Em C5 But now all I really want to learn G Is forgiveness for you then guitar 2( or organ) comes in again with almost the same thing as riff 1 riff 2 ( pitiful attempt at repeat sign ) play what's in 1st box once, repeat it and then play the second box E--------------------------------------------------l------- B----------------------------------------------.---l------- G-----9---11-12-8-----11-8-9--------------12-------l---9--- D------------------------------10-12-----------.---l------- A-----------------------------------------10-------l------- E--------------------------------------------------l------- *(Not sure about octave before repeat)* Verse Em B C G As my seasons change I've now grown to know Em B C G When one's heart creates, one's soul doesn't owe D So I wash away stains of yesterday Em C5 Then tempt my heart with love's display (Play Chorus again) Guitar interlude (couldn't quite call this a solo!)

This truly is a great song. But I was disappointed that, like the other songs on "Disciplined Breakdown", there are no real solos. Ross Childress is an extremely talented guitarist, Why don't they let him solo? It would make the great tunes even better. P.S - Comments, Questions, improvements; welcome and appreciated!
