(peter plays that lick through the chorus-faster bends when he sings
"not at the slightest/leaves you in silence, but i also listed the
what robert plays. it's in F, but he slides from playing low on
the neck on the E string, up to high on the neck on the A string,
which would be on the 8th fret. the G# is also in higher key, on the
11th fret)

Riff 2:

the easy road lies awake takes it's toll and not at the slightest
leaves you blind, leaves you there, takes your heart and leaves you in silence.

Verse 2 (same as 1):
she said don't leave us behind, we'll never be here again
our lives are closer this way, i won't be fooled by the light
i won't be fooled by the light

the easy road lies awake takes it's toll and leaves you excited
leaves you blind, leaves you there, takes your heart and now that you've wasted

ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-oo, we're all broken hearted
