This gets added as the riff builds, use pinch harmonics too...

It was such a misfourtune to steal
But the time finally came so I took
If the moment were stretched to the seams
Would it matter if nobody looked?
Half of the time on the stage
When most of it's not even real
Regardless of anything fake
How much can you practice to steal?
The moment gets lost in the words
For one time just let it be heard
Resembling is never enough
And to carry on blind is absurd
Between either side of the choice
Which possibly holds even more
However the effort is voiced
This has all probably happened before
There's a fast riff in there, not sure but something like this...

Note: the rest of this is from the 1/30/04 version, which is quite
different from the way they play it every time since. Now they end it with
a jam very similar to the beginning of the song, with these lyrics...
I missed the boat on what you said
So say it all again
Unless it's the same thing
Here's the other part from 1/30/04, I don't know why they dropped it? Must have
felt it didn't really fit with the rest of the song, hopefully it pops up again somewhere...
The jam builds very slowly, based on
G F Eb F
You can play major scales on each chord, as in Ionian mode.
These are some of the main riffs that the jam builds on...

Here's another, basically the whole jam you are repeating and building on
shapes, just sliding up or down 2 frets depending on which chord you're on...
To play it right, you really just wanna try to free form around these shapes,
don't sit on one to long, weave them together and expand on them...
Play this, then again down 2 frets, then again down 2 more, then up 2...
E-17p15----19p15----17p15----19p15----17p15----19p15----17p15----19p15-|
