fly by radiating light
grant her secret wishes
five satellites in just one night

Only talking sense - Finn

(Tab by Rodney Macfarlane)

(I know i haven't done a very good job as i couldn't be bothered working
out exactly what he plays but it should give you some idea - i'm pretty
sure the chords are right though)

Tuning: DAdGBe

(For the riffs i've really only given the essence of what they are as Neil
vairies it constantly - if you base you're own improvisation around the
chords and what i've tabbed you should have something which shounds okay.)

Verse I:
 there's a wild thing in the wool shed
 and its keeping me awake at night
 a devil in the closet
 and a feeling i'd prefer to hide
 he religion
 he won't hear me when i cry for help
 he has a vision of me
 but i am somebody else


Chorus:
 we [Bm] talk the pillow
 there are [G] times when i'm tied up to the [F#m] fence
 and i'm only talking sense [play riff I]

Verse II:

 >Riff II (essentially riff I with an extra A on the end):

  Bmsus2        G              D               A
e--------------------------------------------------------|
B--------2-----------------------------------------------|

d----4--------------0----------0-4p0-0----0------2-------|
A--2-----------------------------------(0)-----0---------|
D---------------4h5--------------------------------------|

 there's a mirror lake before me
 but i'm frozen when its time to jump
 it's like maybe i'm afraid of what i'll find
 when independance comes
 you steel my shadow
 you make my blood run dry

Chorus II:
 we are [D] true only when we [Bm] talk the pillow
 there are [G] times when i'm tied up to the [F#m] fence
 only talking sence [play riff II]
 and i'm only talking sense [play riff I]

Verse III (with Riff II):
 did you suffer as a child
 that's why you want to make me cry
 you are afraid of me
 that's why you're so unkind

Chorus III
 [D] you [Bm] won't deny it
 when you're [G] child is tied up to the [F#m] fence
 and i'm only talking [D] sense
 lonely when we [Bm] talk the pillow
 and your [G] child is messed up in the [F#m] head
 i'm only talking sense [Bm]
