   Overview:

   Okay, even though this song has a lot of strings in it, it is very possible
   to play on the guitar. The same 4 chords are used throughout, and as always,
   are a lot of different variations on this main riff:


E|----1-------0-------1---|----0---| This part I have boxed is the part
B|---3-3-------1-----1-1--|---1-1--| that changes most often. There are
G|--2---2----0--0---2---2-|--2---2-| several different ways Richard goes
D|-0--------2------3------|-2------| about picking this Am chord. These
A|---------3--------------|--------| are a few of the ways he'll play it.
E|------------------------|--------| |
   _ _________________________________________/

   |
E|---------|----0-1-3-5-5-|----0---| They are all basically the same,
B|---1---1-|---1----------|---1-1--| and they are played at the end of a
G|--2---2--|--2-----------|--2---2-| line, this is the order they come in;
D|-2---2---|-2------------|-2------| 1,2,3,4.

   =============================================================================
   Okay, that's the basic lesson, here's the song in full.
   =============================================================================

   [Intro]:
   Notes: This is just the riff played over and over. 
   And, although it's not E-E tuning, I'll just 
   use those chord names anyway. :D

   Verse:
   Notes: Simple yet poetic. That makes this song so great!
   Same as the intro, but if you can't get the picking 
   down, just strum, it sounds good like that too, but
   if you do strum, be sure to get the riff at the end of
   each line!

   Chorus:
   Notes: Nothing much, except that you should probably
   just strum this part. Or get an electric to
   play a chord at a time. :-)

   End part/Middle 8:
   Notes: It's just the same as the chorus. I won't bother to
   write it again.

   Lyrics:
   Notes: These are great! Actually read these! Try to figure
   out what they mean! These lyrics make the song so good!


Dm               C            Bb        Bbm            F Fmaj7/E
Watch the early morning sun, drip like blood from the day
Dm              C          Bb      Bbm      F    Fmaj7/E
See the pretty people run, so many games to play
Dm              C            Bb        Bbm         F Fmaj7/E
See the blue suburban dream, under the jet plane sky
Dm               C            Bb                     A
Sleep away and dream a dream, life is just a lullaba-by

Bb           C       F                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, and everything will flow
Bb           C            A                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, you know everything will flow
Bb      A
Oh ho, ho

Dm              C          Bb         Bbm       F    Fmaj7/E
Watch the day begin again, whispering into the night
Dm              C           Bb       Bbm        F     Fmaj7/E
See the pretty people play, hurrying under the light
  Dm               C              Bb        Bbm         F   Fmaj7/E
A million cars, a million trains, under the jet plane sky
Dm                 C              Bb                     A
Nothing lost, and nothing gained, life is just a lullaba-by

Bb           C       F                 Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, and everything will flow
Bb           C          A                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, I said everything will flow
Bb           C            F                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, you know everything will flow
Bb     A
Oh ho, ho

Bb           C       F                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, and everything will flow
Bb           C            A                Dm
Oh ho, ho ho ho, you know everything will flow

    Bb                 C                       F               Dm
The neon lights in the night tonight will say, everything will flow
    Bb                      C                  A               Dm
The stars that shine in the open sky will say, everything will flow
    Bb                    C                   F               Dm
The lovers kissed with an open lisp will say, everything will flow
    Bb                 C                  A               Dm
The cars parked in the hyper market know, everything will flow
