A A5 E D D9 A
Frozen dreaming of yesterday
A A5 E D D9 A
Potent, creeping I'm far away
A A5 E D D9 A
From my hometown I lit out
A A5 E D D9 A
To save my skin and shed some doubt
Now comes the pro-Chorus with a rhythmic arpeggio guitar William DuVall:
Pro-Chorus:

I know how false the floor

How high the sky
F D
Been down that road before
