    Verse


    The verse has the same chords that the part above, but they're
    played with distortion. Hear very carefully the song so you can catch
    the rhythm.

    Here are the lyrics:

    Have you run your fingers down the wall
    And have you felt your neck skin crawl
    When you're searching for the light
    Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
    At the corner of the room
    You've sensed that something's watching you


    Solo:

    (The easy part)

    E|---------------------------------------------|
    B|---------------------------------------------|
    G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7--------------------|
    D|--------------------------10-8--8-7-5-7^-7~--|
    A|---------------------------------------------|
    E|---------------------------------------------|

    E|---------------------------------------------|
    B|---------------------------------------------|
    G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7----------5-7~------|
    D|--------------------------10-8-7-5-----------|
    A|---------------------------------------------|
    E|---------------------------------------------|

    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    B|---------------8---------------8-------------------------------------------
    G|---7~---7-9-10---10-9---7-9-10---10-9--7-----------------------------------
    D|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7-7^-7~------------------------

    D|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7------------------------------
    A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------


    {Solo-Really-Fast-Difficult-To-Catch}

    Solo:

    (Again, an easy part)

    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    B|-------10-6-8~-------10-6-8-6----------------------------------------------
    G|-7-7-7---------7-7-7----------------10-7-9~-------10-7-9-5--------7-3-5----
    D|------------------------------8-8-8---------8-8-8-----------5-5-5----------
    A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    G|-------10-7-9-------7----7-5---5-7---7-5---5-------------------------------
    D|-7-7-7--------10-7--7--7-----7-----7-----7---------------------------------
    A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Then, comes the Chorus again, the last verse, and the outro,
    that is similar to the Intro, so you can get it easy.
