Then when the guitar comes in: Fmajor DbM7 Dm7 Db (twice)
Flute solo: | = bar line
Fm | Fm | Fm | Fm | Cm | Bbm | Fm | Eb/G | Ab | C/E | Fm Fm/Eb |

Then:
Fm | Dbm | Fm | Dbm |
Fm Dbm Fm Abm Eb
I never wanted to become someone like him, so secure
Ab Cm D
content to live each day just like the last
Bm7b5
I was sure I knew that
A C#m D9
This was not for me
A C#m C
And I wanted so much more
Em Bb Dm
Far beyond what I could see
Db
So I swore that I'd
Bb Dm F#m F#m
Never be someone like him
Fm Dbm
So many years have passed
Fm Abm
Since I proclaimed
Eb/Bb
My independance
Abm
My mission
Eb/Bb
My aim
Abm
And my vision
Eb
So secure
Abm Eb/G D/F#
Content to live each day like it's my last

That I could be

Something more than what I dreamed

Still I swear that I'm

Missing out this time
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/dream_theater/octavarium_i_and_ii_crd.html ]
E/B A/B
As far as I could tell
E/B B
There's nothing more I need
E/B A/B
But still I ask myself
Em/B B
Could this be everything
B
Then all I swore
Bb Bb/F D/A
That I would never be was now
F#m/C#
So suddenly
Am/E
The only thing
Em
I wanted
D
To become
Dm/F A
To be someone just like him
the timing might not be perfect but the chords are definately correct

2. Mediate (awakening)
Bass solo then: A | Dm/F | A |Dm/F
A Dm/F
A doctor sitting next to me
A
He asked me how I feel
Dm/F
Not sure I understand his questioning
A Dm/F
He says I've been away a while
F#m
But thinks he has cured me
F
From a state of catatonic sleep
D F
For 30 years
A
Where have I been
D/F#
Eyes open
F A
But not getting through to me
A
Medicate me
Am/F
Infiltrate me
A/F# Am/F
Side effects appear
A
As my conscience slips away
A
Medicate me
Am/F
Science failing
A/F# Am/F
Conscience fading fast
A | Dm/F | A | Dm/F(stop and sustain-1 bar)
Can't you stop what's happening
A Dm/F
A higher dosage he prescribes
A
But there's no guarantee
Dm/F
I feel it starting to take over me
A Dm/F
I tell him not to be ashamed
F#m
There's no one who's to blame
F
A second shot, A brief awakening
D F
I feel the relapse
A
Can't break free
D/F#
Eyes open
F A
But not getting through to me
A
Medicate me
Am/F
Infiltrate me
A/F# Am/F
Side effects appear
A
As my conscience slips away
A
Medicate me
Am/F
Science failing
A/F# Am/F
Conscience fading fast
A
Can't you stop what's happening
The chords definitely sound right when you play it but I don’t think
they’re exactly the same as the Dream Theater version. My version of
