Tab KEY:

h = hammer on
p = pull of
s = slide (a quick slide)
\ = a slower slide (sounds like 2 separate notes w/ a slide in between)
b = bend (7b8 means bend the string at the 7th fret to make approximately
the note the string would make if played at the 8th fret with no bend)
r = release bend
T = (listed above tab) tap fret with index finger of right hand and pull
	off
~ = hold and slightly vibrate note
> = slide down the neck an unspecified amount

NOTE: the finger-tapping part here is tabbed approximately, as I'd find it
impossible to hear every single note, without having one of those devices
that can slow the music down. I have the same tapping pattern repeating,
while in the song it actually varies slightly.

Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   With the words slaying me slow
   The verbs that just don't flow
   Confusing use of time
   Partial stoning of the heart
   Waiting for something to start
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2a over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 3 (x2) over:
   But every time I turn the volume down
   All I hear is the deafening sound
   Of your heart's pound
---> Play First Solo over Riff 3 (x2)
---> Play Riff 2b over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   Today the longest day
   Hearing repeating things you'd say
   Confusing use of time   
   Can you hear the void I describe
   What do I say vacancy sounds like
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2a over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Second Solo over Riff 3 (x4)
