Tabbed by: Neil Wicker
E-mail: wicker101@hotmail.co.uk
Tuning: Standard
Capo 5
hopefully this is easy enough to follow. Once you have the picking pattern down it's
just a case of putting the chords over it really...
Intro: (played twice, only play the open E at the start of the Bm first time round, then
just play another 2 on the A string for the rest of the song)

And time transcends, oh!
And it seems I speak
like waters leak
And I'm losing friends, oh!

In this small space, oh
