Song Progression:

[Intro] x1

[Riff 1] x2

With [Riff 2] x1:

When they turn the pages of history, when these days have passed long ago,

Will they read of us with sadness for the seeds that we let grow?

With [Riff 3] x2:

We turned our gaze from the castles in the distance,

Eyes cast down on the path of least resistance.

With [Riff 4] x3:

Cities full of hatred, fear and lies.

Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes.

Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise.

With [Riff 5] x1:

Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise.

[Riff 1] x2

With [Riff 2] x1:

The hypocrites are slandering the sacred halls of Truth.

Ancient nobles showering their bitterness on youth.

With [Riff 3] x2:

Can't we find the minds that made us strong?

Can't we learn to feel what's right and what's wrong? What's wrong?

[Guitar Solo and middle section] all skipped here - sorry (someday...)

        I did manage to tab out the section from 3:51 on. The chords in

()'s are played by the first guitar, while another breaks off to finish the

solo.

With [Riff 4] x3:

Cities full of hatred, fear and lies.

Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes.

Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise.

With [Riff 5] x1:

Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise.

With [Riff 4] x1:

Can't we raise our eyes and make a start?

With [Riff 6] x1:

Can't we find the minds to lead us closer to the heart?

(Note: as above, the notes in ()'s are played by a second guitar which is

        doubling the lead part.)
