Incredible song.
Song starts on D9 I believe, with the bass playing the following:
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--3---3-3-3--3-3----------------------------------------------------|
The bass plays that same rhythmic pattern through the D-E progession at
the beginning.
The Chorus goes as follows:
G ---> D and then up to B on the E string, and down to F# and E, and back to D
then Verse/Chorus again and into the bridge:
Am - F - Eb - D - Am - F - Eb - D - Em - D
the song Alternates between the D and Em until the end of the song, where it plays
that B/F#/E/D progression and the song ends.
The only thing else I can see transcribing is the little bass melodies you hear
being played by the string section. both starting from E and from D, both resolving
back to D...
>From E: From D:
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------3-2-------------------------------|
B|--5h7h8-7--3------------------3h5-----3-----------------------------|

| This song means a lot to me, because I left to go far away to college and tried to forget about the guy I was with before college started. And to me, it's bout how I tried to forget about him so I wouldnt get sad but all I found was a hole without him. I went to places where I could forget your name I can't find anything Except a void inside | |

| This song is awesome and I think if more people got to hear it they'd love it, and Vast would be a better known band. I think they are awesome. | |

| The line " what can I buy to make the sky turn blue again" is the most incredible lyric I've heard in a lng time. Jon is truly gifted. This song is amazing and I know exactly how he's feeling, it's the way I would feel if I lost my love. I can feel the agony, I hope I never have to go through it. Beautiful song, I'd love to meet Jon, just to see what kind of person he is. | |

| holy moly, this is such an awesome song, i'm really surprised nobody has commented on it. wow, where to begin? this nearly perfectly typifies the feelings you go thru when you lose the one person you love the most. while the chorus is pretty straight-forward, i am particularly fond of the lines, "What can I buy to make The sky turn blue again Where can I go to feel Like I'm alive again Show me the places Where I can forget your name I can't find anything Except a void inside" He's pleading for normalcy, he just wants to escape to where he can live again, but knows it just isn't possible to live again without this amazing person in his life, or loving him. Wow... just wow. | |

| I was just thinking, in the context of this song, it might even also be taken as the feelings one goes through when they doubt their own faith. That being said I think I've seen just about *every* vast song explained as about God somehow lol. It'd be nice to hear Crosby sit through each song and explain them to us :P | |
