Tuning:Standard


The tab for a very good song from Dutch trance master Armin van Buuren. I attended to one of his gigs last january, and
it was a great experience. The dance mix of this track was featured in the set, but originally, it's an acoustic piece, so this is it:


Advice: Forget the pick, try using your thumb and index finger, it's easier.

It's the same for the rest of the song


LYRICS:

"Now you got it 
 everything you asked 
 burned your bridges 
 so why you turning back" 

"My doors won’t fit you through 
  Your head’s too heavy to 
 What could I give you now 
 I’m still the same tale" 

"So here it is 
 Custom made 
 You wrapped the world 
 Around your finger 
 Was it all 
 A big mistake 
 Has your spring 
 Turned into winter 
 Your in control 
 A one man show 
 But who is watching? 
 There’s no one watching..." 

"So here it is 
 Custom made 
 You wrapped the world 
 Around your finger 
 You’re claim to fame 
 Turned out a shame 
 Has your spring 
 Turned into winter 
 You held your own 
 One man show 
 But no one’s watching... 
 No, no one’s watching... 

"You can’t go back 
 And you can’t come back"
