For the above part, the 111 means tremelo strumming while holding the first fret, Paul plays it down-up-down very quickly, twice. 2:12 - 2:45 RIFF D e-----------| B-----------| G-----------| D-0*-1-3-0*-| X4 A-----------| D-----------| 2:45 - 3:40 RIFF E e-x-| This is played above the nut, not even on B-x-| the neck of the guitar, Paul plays a 6 string G-x-| guitar, with half the strings fastened on each side of the guitar head, Paul only strikes the 3 thinnest strings (for the first sound) RIFF E CONT'D: e-x-x-| This is played right where the strings B-x-x-| come out of the bridge, make sure to G-x-x-| mute the strings (with your hand) D-x-x-| Paul strikes from e up to D. 3:40 - 4:05 RIFF F e-----|------| B-----|------| G-----|---7--| D-3-5-|-1----| A-----|-1----| D-----|-1----| .

LYRICS: A darker whole concealed, within the folds of a truth revealed A blank passage, unread chapter, in my book of memories It crawls though the space behind my face trying to complicate the scene that surrounds me slapped in the face, a bitter taste lingers to penetrate, amuse and astound me Striving to widen the spaces of consciousness It still keeps me locked up inside myself Searching for some sort of revelation Failing to confront the situation I keep slipping I push it down, beneath the surface Ive forgotten, but Its still there It crawls though the space behind my face rying to complicate the scene that surrounds me slapped in the face, a bitter taste lingers to penetrate, amuse and astound me and I cant forget and I cant forgive and I still regret and I still re-live standing on the edge I see emptiness and fading dreams shallow pools of everything nothing seems to comfort me born into obscurity cannot find security clouded by the hate I feel look to what I know is real nothing but the world around me still I fall, back through still I fall, in to a darker hole a darker whole and I cant forget and I cant forgive and I still regret and I still re-live
