Basic chords,..
intro... F - Amin..
verse... F - C ..... F - C -Amin,.. F -C....
chorus... just like the intro. Then just like the verse...
Bridge is a riff on C and F that's not hard to figure out (Ending on aminor like the verse).
Solo in aminor/cmajor btw.

You can access all teh tabs there, but you have to sign up as a forum member before you get acceess to teh "TAB" section, then there is a link to a zip file. I only justy worked out how to unlock it.
Press extract, save to desktop, then open in wordpad, if you open in notepad, it's just garbled junk.
I think it was a guy called "ament" on that forum who saved all this and set it up.

Verse:
F C
Know a man
F C Am
His face seemed pulled and tense
F C F C Csus4 C Am
Like he's riding on a motorbike in the stron-gest winds
F C
So I approach with tact
F C
Suggest that he should relax
F C G7 F
But he's always moving much too fast
F Am
Said he'll see me on the flipside
F Am
On this trip he's taking for a ride

F F C F C
He's been taking too much on
F C F C Csus4 C Am
There he goes with his perfectly un - kept clothes

There he goes

Csus4 C Am
Verse:

He's yet to come back
F C
But I've seen his picture
F C F C Am
It doesn't look the same up on the rack
F C
We go way back
F Am
I wonder about his insides
F Am
It's like his thoughts are too big for his size

Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned
F C
For he still smiles
F C
And he's still strong
F C F C Csus4 C Am
Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit, that has grown
F C F C F C F C Csus4 C Am
And now he's home and we're laughing like we always did my same old, same old friend
F C
Until a quarter to ten

I saw the strain creep in

He seems distracted and I know just what is going to hap - pen next

C* is really just another form of a regular C chord, I just couldn't think
of any other way to refer to it.
I also recommend playing the F like so:

Yeah, just the forums. The old site with all the tabs laid out is gone. That zip file has a lot of songs. I had printed off a lot, and I have a pretty big stash of hard copy, but not a lot of soft copy.
I hadn't worked out how to open the zip until today, for that tab.
I don't think Rick is ever going to bother to put the site back together properly.
Maybe it will prompt PJ to publish some more, but I doubt it.
Given to wail lives on by using the archive pages...
That is even better, I hadn't seen that link, thanks man.
