MASTER & SLAVE
Simmons, Thayer, Kulick

Rhy. Fig 2:
Rhy. Fig 1:
Life, a movie in my head
A page of lines we read
Rhy. Fig 3:
The words remain unsaid
Rhy. Fig 1:
Time, a race you never win
Look back at where we've been
Rhy. Fig 3:
And throw the towel in
Rhy. Fig 1:
Every time I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
Rhy. Fig 2:
I just wanna take my turn
Now before I crash and burn
Yeah
Rhy. Fig 1:
Hope, a candle burning bright
A temporary light
Rhy. Fig 3:
'Till we return tonight
Rhy. Fig 1:
Love, the mighty drug we crave
The master and the slave
Rhy. Fig 3:
Will rule us to our grave
Rhy. Fig 1: (2x)
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
I just want a place to rest,
Count to four and catch my breath
One, Two, Three, Four...
Guitar only:
I don't know what to feel
Don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Rhy. Fig 5: (7x)
I don't know where to go
Don't know who to be
Don't know who to know
Rhy. Fig 6:
Rhy. Fig 5: (15x)

Rhy. Fig 1: (2x)
Rhy. Fig 1:
Life is never what it seems
It shakes you from your dreams
Rhy. Fig 4:
Wake up and start to
Rhy. Fig 1:
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
Rhy. Fig 3:
I just want a place to rest
Stop and let me catch my breath
Rhy. Fig 1:
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
Rhy. Fig 3:
Forget all that I've been told
I just wanna lose control
Rhy. Fig 1:
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
Rhy. Fig 3:
I just wanna take my turn
Now before I crash and burn
