Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
Note: There is a descending bass line (c, b, a, g#, g, f#, f, e) but some chords are just not comfortable to
play on a guitar so adjust your voicings accordingly. I usually dodge the f# and f but sometimes manage to
play them. Also the Am/G# is weird and I might be wrong about it, cause it seems to imply a C augumented chord
but on the piano it sounds alright if you just keep play Am with your right hand and move the bass to G#.

Intro:
This bit is played a few times throughout the song. First time there is no bass note but later when it appears
as the bridge, solo backing and outro the bass note is C. It repeats 3 times during the intro.

Spoken:
Somewhere on the highway
With a luminous moon
Swimming after dark and then
Awaken to you

And feel it

Believe it

Another moment leaves us forever
To the nether

Solo:
(Over pattern 1 x2)

This is the amazing tab by Ayreon77 for the solo, so go and give him a 5 star rating too :)
The solo is mostly C minor pentatonic with a few mixolydian notes scattered throughout.
