intro riff is the same as the chorus riff, but played x2
verse two is only played once instead of the regular two times
the solo is on a video on youtube.com but I cannot differ the notes played; the label is
last purple sky solo"
the last chorus is the same as all of the other choruses
lyrics
I like to take them on
to take them all
And to make the small
Oh I'd like to see them stay
Like those days
when we must walk this world alone
As the purple sky turns grey
And the world grows cold
And the world grows like those days
when we must walk this world alone
As the purple sky turns grey
And the world grows cold
I like to watch things
like to watch things grow
and to take things slow
I like to take them in
with the starlight
and the moon on a cold night
Oh I'd like to see them stay
Like those days
when we must walk this world alone
As the purple sky turns grey
And the world grows cold
I like to watch them
like to watch them go
To where they are gone
this is one of the best songs that I have heard that is doom metal! Get the f**king
if you don't have it!
