Little notes and explanations before we begin: 1) The numbers above the lyrics are the riffs which need to be played. 2) Number 3.1 (Riff 3, 1st part) number 3.2 (Riff 3, 2nd part) etc. 3) For the part 3.3, I think the first 2-3 notes aren't correct, try to improvise, the end is good (I think). 4) For Chorus and bridge part, I think it's better to strum the chords. 5) Please e-mail me if you find any mistakes concerning the tab. 6) This is one of the most beautiful ballads I've ever heard, so... enjoy!!!

Second Verse 1 You used to captivate me, 1 By your resonating light, 1 1 But now I'm bound by the life you left behind, 1 1 Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams, 1 1 2 Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me.
