Then the chords and the lyrics come in

So, so you think you can tell

heaven from hell, blue sky from pain. Can you tell a green field, from a

cold steel rail, a smile from a vail? Do you think you can tell?

id they get you trade, your heros for ghosts, hot ashes for trees, hot air

the part of the war, for a lead role in the cage.

Fill1 is played here again along with the solo
the solo will be added soon, i haven’t yet perfected it yet

How i wish, how i wish you were here. We’re just two lost souls swimming

in a fish bowl, year after year. Running over the same old ground, but have

we found the same old fears, wish you were here.

second solo played, very identical to the first solo, with a few alterations
i will add that also
