Tsunami Bomb
Take the Reins
ALBUM VERSION
Note - As stated above this is the version that appears on the album "Ultimate Escape",
the main part that differs from the way that mike plays it live is that in the chorus,
it is picked and not strummed, the notes are kind of like a harmonic of the chord.
It may look a bit hard, but it sounds great with the recording. This is my 3rd tab of
this particular one, as ive done the live one, and a single version, which is ment to be
the same as this, but i have changed it alot after watching the video, so this is as perfect
as you will see.

| Someone becoming 18 and learning of the responsibilities of the world. Before this they never took ahold of any,and suddenly they're being swamped down, bills, jobs to pay the bills, pure hate of their job. The last verse shows that "locked in, can't get out. your cube is your new home." They work, but hate their job, but have to do it to live. | |

| Help. Does anyone know what she says toward the end of the song when shes speaking? It's like "... Thought you could get away, from rules and regulations, if you could just get away from home. But now you're finding out, the sad reality....???? " | |
