I realize this tab is by no means a complete tab of the entire
song, and I hope to come back and add more guitar solo parts later.
But if you were wondering how to play along with it, play it for
your friends, whatever, then here's a pretty good summary of most
of the song.

I once upon a time
Saw movement in their eyes
If death should take me now

Carried a burden inside
Said I no longer knew the way
Count my mistakes and let me through

I sung a last goodbye, a broken rhyme I'd underlined
Given up the ghost, a passive mind submit to fear
Whisper in my ear, you've taken more than we've recieved

There's an ocean of sorrow in
And the wait for redemption at
And the ocean of sorrow is [to guitar solo]

Again, I know there's a lot missing, the solos and the acoustic
outro, but I will get to it later. Enjoy.
