I DREAMED I DREAM

tUnInG: STANDARD (EADGBE)

The most wonderful song they ever made...

It kicks off with Kim's bass-line,
then:
E|--0----------------------------0--------------------------
B|-----6----------------------------6-----------------------
G|-------8----------------------------8---------------------
D|------------0-0-0-0-0-2-2----------------0-0-0-0-0-2-2----
A|----------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------0----------------------------0--
(repeat this)
while tm plays this, lr just plays harmonics on the low E-string on the
7th fret

after a while the main riff kicks in:
E|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

Yeah, its called "I Dreamed I Dream". I see two possible meanings. Either way, its the plight of working class youth in dead end mindless monotonous jobs. It could be about how the government takes more and more money through taxes and yet nothing positive is seen in return. "People suffer from impotence" == government officials. It's also about being young and stuck in a rut, a dead end job (All the money's gone) which doesn't pay much but is the pinnacle of monotony(The days we spent go on and on). They suffer from impotence, they feel useless. They dream, but their dreams are also impotent.
