no use in looking 'round Hold your head above the crowd and they won't bring you down Chorus Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind We marvel after those who sought New wonders in the world, wonders in the world, Wonders in the world they wrought. 2nd Verse Live for yourself -- there's no one else More worth living for Begging hands and bleeding hearts Will only cry out for more Chorus Solo 3rd Verse Well, I know they've always told you Selfishness was wrong Yes it was for me, not you, I came to write this song Chorus Revision history: Revision 00: Some time in late 1998 early 1999 Revision 01: Submitted 05-29-2001, updated format, fixed intro riff still needs a lot of work!

D.S. = "Dal segno" - means "from the sign", go back in the tabulature only as far as the (%) sign. Coda = A passage at the end of a movement or composition that brings it to a formal close. Al Coda = means "to the tail", tells you that you must go to the end section which starts with the Coda sign (+). R.F. = repeat and fade rit. = "ritardando" - Gradually slowing in tempo; retarding. Tablature Format: This Tablature is based on the format indicated below. 4/4 <--Time Signature & Effects Line D <--Chord Line e e e q q e <--Note Duration Line (table below) e|---------2-----------------------|G<--High E string B|-------------3-------------------|T<--B string G|-----2---------------2-------0---|R<--G string D|(0)------------------------------|1<--D string A|---------------------------------| <--A string E|---------------------------------| <--E string ^=Space identifies guitar or keys 1 2 3 4 <--Quarter note beat locations 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 <--Eighth note beat locations Time Signature & Effects Line: Indicates 4/4, 3/4, 7/8, etc. It is only shown for initial time signature indication or changes in time signature. Also provides effects information, e.g., distortion on or off, wha wha on, etc. Chord Line: Provides the chord name for the chords used in the tab below. Note Duration Line: Provides the "value" of each note, e.g., whole, half, quarter, etc. Note Duration Table: w = Whole note h = Half note H = Dotted half note q = Quarter note Q = Dotted Quarter note e = Eighth note E = Dotted eighth note s = Sixteenth note S = Dotted sixteenth note t = Thirty-second note T = Dotted thirty-second note String lines: Represent the strings of a guitar. The tab is laid out as if you placed a right handed guitar on your lap, string side up. A vertical line character "|" represents a bar between measures. A dash "-" represents each string. The numbers indicate which fret should be fingered to sound the note. The first space after every bar is a blank space that is almost never used. Quarter notes are separated by 7 dashes, eighth notes are separated by 3 dashes, sixteenth notes by 1 dash. In an effort to make the "ASCII" tab look as much like tab in a music book, the notes are spaced out as accurately as possible. In the event the notes will not fit into the standard format shown above, the tab is expanded (usually only required for solos). Notes within parenthesis "()" are usually sustained notes which do not need to be struck again with the pick. Parenthesis may may be used for other purposes and are indicated as such. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
