Pretty cool, easy song from the Definitive Act.  I didn't write out the exact 

rhythms for all the song, so you'll have to listen to it to figure it out.

Nothing's too complicated.  Feel free to email me with questions/comments,

whatever.  Have fun

I never thought it mattered, never thought it mattered so much to me 

exactly where I put my feet, I was wrong. 

I drink a strong cup of coffee. A long time ago, I had a home. 

A corner where I could be alone. 



Chorus:  



It sounds like there are two guitars here, one is playing chords, the other 

doing octaves, i'll write out both ways, both sound almost the same, but just

for the hell of it, you can play either and it will work.  Listen to the song for 

the strumming.

       E5           A5             B5        C#5

So goodbye my solid ground. I'm an engine, I won't break down.

         E5              A5 

A lonely chord without a song,

          B5           C#5 G#5 A5

searching for an orchestration where I belong.  

  

Verse 2:



Play this riff under the first line:



                             x4, 3rd time vocals come in

Where will I hang up my raincoat when this day is over?

E|--------------------5-5-5-5---------------------------5-5-5-5-----------|



Like a leaf without a tree, nothing to cover over me. 

I'm like a character from a story, I don't exist.
