Hello, i like this song and id like people to play it cos its a damn beautiful tune.

palm mute = ~
let chord ring out = ^

 d/----8~~6~~~~~~~4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~--8~~6~~~~~~4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 e/----6~~4~~~~~~~2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~--6~~4~~~~~~2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

g/------------9--------------8----6------------4-------------
d/----9-------9--------------8----6------------4-------------
a/----9-------7--------------6----4------------2-------------
e/----7------------------------------------------------------ 
       I am a satellite,     never getting     signals right,

Then back to the intro:

g/--------------8^^^^^8^6^4^^^-8-----6---------------4----------------------
d/------8^^^^^-9^^^^^8^6^4^^^^-8-----6---------------4----------------------
a/---- 9^^^^^-7^^^^^6^4^2^^^^--6-----4---------------2----------------------
e/----7^^^^^----------------------------------------------------------------
                            and the dreamers, walk slowly through the crowd,
                     repeat:        nothing, can stop us now 

then another chorus which the song ends on

end.
