    Listen to song for rythm but basically the F power chord is played for a beat and a half
  • the E/F power chord is played for a half beat each time. After that the D powerchord
    played one beat and the A and A# powerchords are played a half-beat each. (Wierd rythm
    but you'll understand when you hear it.)
  •  
    Violin part played at different parts in the song:

    B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

    A|---8----7----8----7----5----7----8----8----7----5----7----8---|

  •  
    and hit the A and A# powerchords a little bit harder because this bit goes into the
    which is below.
  •  
    Chorus (Which is also the outtro):
     
  • (First guitar can just play these powerchords in the chorus)
     
    e|----------------|
  • B|----------------|
    G|--10---7----5---|
    D|--10---7----5---|
  • A|--8----5----3---|
    E|----------------|
     
  • (If you want to play something more or you have a second guitar play this)
     
    e|----------------------------------------------------------------|
  • B|----------------------------------------------------------------|
    G|--10---10---10---10----7----7----7----7----5----7---9--10--12---|
    D|--10---10---10---10----7----7----7----7----x----x---x--x---x----|
  • A|--8----7----8----7-----5----7----5----7----3----5---7--8---10---|
    E|----------------------------------------------------------------|
     
  • As usual, the F and D chords are played a beat and a half while the E/F and E/D chords
    played only a half beat. The octaves are just played slowly at first and then go up fast.
     
  • On most of the parts of the song I thought the higher F powerchord sounded better but if
    dont think so, simply substitute it for the lower one:
     
  • e|------------------------------------------|
    B|------------------------------------------|
    G|------------------------------------------|
  • D|--3----------------------------------3----|
    A|--3—and then play the E/F like this--3----|
    E|--1----------------------------------0----|
  •  
    Also, you can play the full chords if you think they sound better (Fmaj, Dmin, Amaj,
    Cmaj
  •  
     
    Ok, these should be all the parts of the song just listen to it to see when to play
  • Also at the end of the song, play the intro riff while everything else fades out.
     
    Very good song thats a lot of fun to solo to. I just heard the songs on the cd today
  • I'm gonna try to get a tab for "Wake Up" as soon as possible.
     
    Lyrics:
  •  
    And if the snow buries my,
    my neighborhood.
  • And if my parents are crying
    then I'll dig a tunnel
    from my window to yours,
  • yeah a tunnel from my window to yours.
    You climb out the chimney
    and meet me in the middle,
  • the middle of town.
    And since there's no one else around,
    we let our hair grow long
  • and forget all we used to know,
    then our skin gets thicker
    from living out in the snow.
  •  
    You change all the lead
    sleepin' in my head,
  • as the day grows dim
    I hear you sing a golden hymn.
     
  • Then we tried to name our babies,
    but we forgot all the names that,
    the names we used to know.
  • But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms,
    and our parent's bedrooms,
    and the bedrooms of our friends.
  • Then we think of our parents,
    well what ever happened to them?!
     
  • You change all the lead
    sleepin' in my head to gold,
    as the day grows dim,
  • I hear you sing a golden hymn,
    the song I've been trying to say.
     
  • Purify the colors, purify my mind.
    Purify the colors, purify my mind,
    and spread the ashes of the colors
  • over this heart of mine!
  • PLAY TOO ..
