tabbed by Staten (statenw@gmail.com)

Can very much be played on a B / D tuned 6 string.
Not tabbed the solos, I enjoy improvising them alot more.
Enjoy!

Parts and lyrics:
Intro
Verse:     Inside the house that burned
           No exit, no return
           A place of oak and ashes
           The silence of a 1000 voices
Stick 1
           In the ruins of blackened wood
           The house of orphans stood
           No play, no childhood existed
           You checked in, you never left
Chorus:    In the house of a 1000 voices
           There's the hall of a 1000 devils
           Broken dreams, no hopes no choices
           Just a box full of evil
           There's a room that no-one has seen
           in the walls, a 1000 screams
           Little voices, toys and laces
           In the mirrors you see their faces
Solo 1:
Stick 2:   Stones and thrash, grass and berries
           In the yard, there's something buried
           There's a smell of somethings that's wrong
           Something is wrong
           Tiny feet and tiny shoes
           In the shadows they're still running loose
           Innocent to murder and death
           Murder and death 
Stick 3:
Verse 2:   In the ruins of blackened wood
           The house of orphans stood
           No play, no childhood existed
           You checked in, you never left
Chorus:    In the house of a 1000 voices
           There's the hall of a 1000 devils
           Broken dreams, no hopes no choices
           Just a box full of evil
           There's a room that no-one has seen
           in the walls, a 1000 screams
           Little voices, toys and laces
           In the mirrors you see their faces
