Porcupine Tree - Lazarus
------------------------
Tab Authors: kampfkuscher & schmusepunkbärli
Intro: A - E - D
A E D
As the cheerless towns pass my window
A E D
I can see a washed out moon through the fog
A E D
And then a voice inside my head breaks the analogue
And says
A E D
Follow me down to the valley below
You know
A E D
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
----------------------
The other verses and refrains work the same way.
------------------------
Bridge:
-------
c# D
My David don't you worry
A E
This cold world is not for you
c# D
So rest your head upon me
A E
I have strength to carry you
Outro:
-----
A E D
Follow me down to the valley below
You know
A E D
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
F D
Come to us Lazarus
E A
It's time for you to go

| Shut up about the incest idea it is unfounded and quite disgusting. When I am listening to Deadwing I don't want to think about having sex with my sister...grows. This is a beautiful song and I can find no incest in this song..... | |

| to me i think this song is about being abducted by aliens. aliens sometimes lure you to a place to abduct you. "then a voice inside my head breaks the analog and says, Follow me down to the valley below" so yeah, the alien is telling him to follow him so he can abduct him. and also "it's time for you to go" so he's being abducted. it is a very beautiful song though, massive fan of Porcupine Tree. | |

| Me and my friend just saw Porcupine Tree live. They played this song, and it was awesome, even better then the CD version. Steve Wilson really has an awesome voice. Anyway, He explained a few songs, Lazarus being one of them. He said something like: "This is as close to a lovesong as Porcupine Tree can get, and it's a pretty fucked up love song. Because in this song, one of the lovers is dead. The dead mother sings this to her son." Or something like that. In any case, it is about a dead mother and her child. | |

| Lazarus was the brother of Martha and Mary of Bethania, who were friends of Jesus. The two sisters asked Jesus to bring Lazarus back to life. That's all I have to add... Heh. | |
