A------------------------------------|-----------------back to intro riff| e------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home Verse 2 To keep in silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut So I went from day to day Though my life was in a rut Till I thought of what I'd say And which connection I should cut I was feeling part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart going boom boom boom Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home yeaah, back home Verse 3 When illusion spin her net I'm never where I want to be And liberty she pirouette When I think that I am free Watched by empty silhouettes Who close their eyes but still can see No one taught them etiquette So I will show another me Today I don't need a replacement I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant My heart going boom boom boom Hey, I said, you can keep my things they've come to take me home Finish off song with some heavy power chords on xx42x (high to low) with good distorsion "Let freedom ring" "Oh Rock of ages do not crumble love is breathing still" "Oh Lady Moonshine down, a little people magic if you will" This tab was created with the help of an Amiga computer and the sampling software Audiomaster IV, under the menu effects/duration/pitch the frequency and the pitch can be doubled, thus enabling the program to play back the sample at half the speed but with the original pitch. -- raggen@hem1.passagen.se, Roger
