Bass Tab "Ice" Sarah McLaughlin
this is the version from the "freedom sessions", not from "fumbling towards
ecstacy". I really liked this riff, and so i decided to transcribe for
everyone. i think you will find it pretty easy.... enjoy!

VERSE
{riff 1}
the ice is thin, come on dive in; underneath my lucid skin,
{riff2} {riff 1}
the cold is lost forgotten.
{riff1}
hours pass, days pass, time stands still; light gets dark and darkness fills
{riff2} {riff 1}
my secret heart forbidden
(as above)
i think you worried for me then, the subtle way that i give in
but i know you liked the show.
tied down to this bed of shame, tried to move around the pain but
oh, your soul is anchored
CHORUS
{riff 3}(repeats)
the only comfort is the moving of the river.
you enter in to me, a lie upon your lips.
offer what you can; i'll take all i can get
{riff 1}
only a fool's here to stay
i don't like your tragic sighs, as if your god has passed you by
but hey fool, that's your deception
your angels speak with jilting tounges; the serpent's tail has come undone
you have no strength to squander
CHORUS
BRIDGE
{riff 4}(repeats)
you're in my heart, you're in my soul, you're in my dreams come true
{riff 1}
and don't i lie, and don't i love? you're my dreams come true.
{riff 1} (repeats and fades)
the ice is thin, come on dive in....
