bare with me..this isnt really organized that great..

the tab above is basically just the little riffs Mike McCready plays

or at least what you can play..they are not exactly correct..but you

can always just fiddle around..do what feels right..



For what i've labeled (A) in the tab.. you just fool around and play that

little riff i gave.. no need to just play the same over and over again

add little hammer ons and pull offs and different switches.. while

the rhythm is basically just the chord A strummed over and over again

listen for the timing.. sort of strum slow then fast then slow and let it

linger through out the verses.. then when it gets to the transition on

part (B) play D B(?) A C and then that little riff i gave.

and thats about it.. until it changes to the "things were different then"

part.. which is just G and A back and forth.(you can add little harmonics

hammerons pull offs, whatever you like)



here is the lyrics with chords.. this song isnt perfect.. words and tab

I'm 17 years old and only been playing a year so don't expect much

but when i play it..i think it sounds ok.



*verse*

A        A      A           A

Paint a picture Isnt all in gray

A        A        A        A

light your pillow lay back watch the flames

A        A        A      A           

I'll tell a story but no one listens that long

A        A           A        A

it's hard to imagine it's hard to imagine



CHORUS (B)



D B(?) A C



D B(?) A C



Tear upon us all the days are long

Fly the meadow lay down four years now

after heaven seen all they saw

its hard to imagine its hard to imagine



CHORUS (B)



D B(?) A C

things were different then

                 G

All is different Now

           A                G

I tried to explain    Somehow

G                     A
