A augmentedA TRICK WITH NO SLEEVE
(by Alain Johannes, Dave Grohl & Joshua Homme)

I like to play this song with the pick, by picking the 'bass' notes with it, and
plucking with my fingers the other strings. Also, when it get to the chorus, you
can strum as it should be, without losing pace. What a great song!

Lyrics:
Under hallowed sky
Ghosts are giving way
As a crow did fly
Meet me here someday
One from ashes risen
Two from memories served
On three we all believe
Trick with no sleeve

Blinded by the deafening
Ever-present past
Silent voices carry
Mine won't be the last
So I do believe
A augmentedA trick with no sleeve

Open hands a glowing sun
On my way back home
A augmentedA loving glance, a caring touch
Oh, I hope it won't be long
An open heart, a deep blue moon
On my way back home
The magic at the rainbow's end
Oh, I hope it won't be long

Woke up in a mirror
Saw myself as you
Didn't seem so different
Now what should we do?
Pick up missing pieces
Mystery once again
So, I do believe
A augmentedA trick with no sleeve

Open hands a glowing sun
On my way back home
A augmentedA loving glance, a caring touch
Oh, I hope it won't be long
An open heart, a deep blue moon
On my way back home
The magic at the rainbow's end
Oh, I hope it won't be long

Won't you reach into this life
Won't you reach into this life
Won't you reach into this life
And take it

Open hands, a glowing sun
On my way back home
A augmentedA loving glance, a caring touch
Oh, I hope it won't be long
An open heart, a deep blue moon
On my way back home
The magic at the rainbow's end
Oh, I hope it won't be long

Hope it won't be long
Hope it won't be long
Hope it won't be long
