Album: Elsewhere For Eight Minutes

This song is the latest single for Something For Kate.
As with most of their songs the guitar is played with some variations
throughout the song, but here is my attempt at tabbing it out. Listen
to the song in order to get the feel for how to play the guitar parts. The
strumming pattern in the main body of the song is fairly regular, both up and
downstrokes, so play with the tab if it doesn't feel right to you.
This is the first time I have ever tabbed a song out, and I might do some
more SFK tabs if I can figure them out. They are usually quite difficult to
figure out, due to Paul Demspey being such an amazing guitarist. Structure
and lyrics are at the end of the tab.
Have fun, more SFK tabs coming soon.

LYRICS:
-------
Down the hall its the same
Counting the footsteps and practising deep breaths and
Certain suspicious calls
A day is a day, home is home and everything
Everything is as it seems
Regardless of you and me
Images linger on even after its gone
These mirrors may go on forever
Inside these rooms nothing ever ends
That can hang on your face
And drive you insane...
Drive you insane
Drive you insane
If you want me to
Take all those things down throw them away
You never liked them anyway
Oh you've got your hammer out
And you're hammering down
Corners at last
And you're laying claim
Gathering everyone around
So you can drive them, drive them away
Drive them away
Drive them away
If you want me to
Gather everyone around, send them away
You never liked them anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway...
A day is a day, home is home.
