Dropped D,A,D,G

 and / = slide down and up
h and p = hammer-on and pull-off
~ = hold note
(#) = continued note
+ and - = beat and half-beat
but you know all that

notes: this is as close as i could 
get. The 0's, 1's, and 2's in the 
verse are tens, elevens and twelves.
Also, matt improvises on the second 
line of the verse a lot. also, after
the bridge is played 4 times, the 
second line from the bridge is played 
once more. (hence bridge x 4.5)

	I can't explain why, but this is one of my all-time favorite songs. I'm not even a big Sparta fan, but this song just kills me. I'm with most of you guys...it's pretty much an elegy.

	great song

No Picture ben Average	#4 by ben bell at Jul 18, 2003 at 9:56 AM EST
	This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Ir was also the first Sparta song I ever heard, and it had me hooked on them instantly. This is by far one of my favorite songs ever, and easily the best Sparta song, in my opinion. The harmony of all the different parts, and the urgent yet unobtrusive singing- Jim's voice really is just another instrument in this song.
