Lyrics
Put your clock back for the winter She asks when I'll be home again If I could see those eyes I know they'd cut me down a size You're not here, when I need you So sit and wait And bend and break You rise and fall Just you that's all I'm here, you're there It don't mean I don't care I'm so sorry I was miles away It's been a day of tiny triumphs It's been a week spent in dispair You can't send it down a phone line I do my best, but I'm not there So sleep and wake And dream up your fate And rise and fall Watch you grow tall I'm here, you're there But you should still know I love you When I'm miles away I'll be home again I'll be home again Coming home again Coming home again

Tabbed By: Brad Snare Email: bodysnare@hotmail.com Guitar Intro RIFF 1: G|-----------| D|-----------| Riffs 1 & 2 are played for practicly A|-----------| the whole song over and over 4 times each E|--3-0-0-0--| (Riff 1 x 4,Riff 2 x 4,etc.).You're best off listening to the CD for timing.Also, RIFF 2: I think Karl slaps the first note of these G|------------| two riffs (3 or 12) and then pulls/pops the D|------------| open string three times, but it sounds ok by A|------------| just pulling. E|--12-0-0-0--| BRIDGE RIFF: Part 1: G|---------------------| D|---------------------| A|---------------------| E|--3-3-33-3-33333333--| Part 2: G|----------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------| same timing A|----------------------------------------------| as part 1 E|--12--12--12-12--12--12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12--| The bridge is played as Part 1 and Part 2 together after each other. That's It (at least I think that's it).You should be able to get it after a couple of times.It's not that hard when you listen to it. I think when they play live, Karl mixes it up by adding another riff with the other 2. I think it is... E|--5-0-0-0--|
