Title: Waiting For Our Time Artist: Styx Album: Cyclorama Year: 2003 Tuning: Standard Ok, this song is absolutely beautiful and its off their new album "CYCLORAMA" If you have the album I would appreciate it if you could clarify for me what the hell is so signifigant about the damn carrot. (The album designs that Styx have had in the past usually relate to the album Title, and the title usually relates to the album theme) So yea the frikkin carrot has me stumped =P Oh and good luck singing this unless you can sing Tommy Shaw good. His voice sounds high like a frikkin girl, but it's all good. Anyway Tommy has lead vocals on this, and he's playin the acoustic, and JY (My favorite Styx member) is on the electric, rockin his ass of like he always does, cuz lets face it: Tommy's tight, but JY kicks ass and takes names and thats all there is to it =P. Anyhow, here's this beautiful Styx masterpiece. Intro: (Guitar 1 = acoustic, Guitar 2 = electric) Guitar 1: d=down stroke u=up stroke d d u d d d d u d d d d u d d d d u d E-2-2-2-2-3-5-5-5-5-7-3-3-3-3-5-2-2-2-2------- B-3-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-8-3-3-3-3-6-3-3-3-3------- G-2-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-7-2-2-2-2-5-2-2-2-2------- D-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------- A--------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------- d d u d d d d u d d d d u d d d d u d E-2-2-2-2-3-5-5-5-5-7-3-3-3-3-5-2-2-2-2------- B-3-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-8-3-3-3-3-6-3-3-3-3------- G-2-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-7-2-2-2-2-5-2-2-2-2------- D-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------- A--------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------- Guitar 2: E-2vvv----3-5vvv-----7-3vvv----5-2vvv--------- B--------------------------------------------- G--------------------------------------------- D--------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------- D Dsus4 D Looking up from where I stand D Dsus4 D I see the vapor trail D C D Of a jet plane in the skyyyyy D Dsus4 D Here the wheel is in my hand D Dsus4 D But there's no wind in my sails D C D And life is drifting byyyyyy This next parts awesome (reminds me of Dead Or Alive by Bon Jovi =P) Note that guitars 1 and 2 are in unison, therefore I will tab the part they're playing Both Guitars: (they're strumming and picking on this part) d d d u d d E-2-------2-2-2--2--2-------------2----2---2---2---2------------- B-3-----3-3-3-3--3--3---------3---3----3---3---3---3-----3------- G-2---2---2-2-2--2--2-------2-----2----2---2---2---2---2--------- D-0-0-----0-0-0--0--0-----0-------0----0---0---0---0-0----------- A-----------------------0---------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------- Still I hold on and wait I know its not too late E---------------------------------------------------------------- B-------3--------------3----------------------------------------- G----2---------------2------------------------------------------- D-------------0----0--------------------------------------------- A-----------0----0----------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------- My breeze will come (Play the same part over these lyrics) Muse you satisfy my soul Keep my warm while the cold world Guards the gate Now the chorus =D Please note that the guitar are once again in unison =P Oh and...only strum the chords over the words, the parts in between the words you play all down strokes Both Guitars: (2x)d=down stroke s=strum d d d d d s d d d d d s d d d d d s E---------------5-----------------------5-----------------------5------- B---------------7-----------------------7-----------------------7------- G-5-5-5-5-7-----7---------5-5-5-5-7-----7---------5-5-5-5-7-----7------- D-5-5-5-5-7-----7---------5-5-5-5-7-----7---------5-5-5-5-7-----7------- A-5-5-5-5-5-----5---------5-5-5-5-5-----5---------5-5-5-5-5-----5------- E-5-5-5-5-5-----5---------5-5-5-5-5-----5---------5-5-5-5-5-----5------- I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning s s s E-5---------------3-------3------- B-7---------------5-------3------- G-7---------------5-------4------- D-7---------------5-------5------- A-5---------------3-------5------- E-5---------------3-------3------- Waiting for our time to come Repeat Intro Pattern: Guitar 1: d d u d d d d u d d d d u d d d d u d E-2-2-2-2-3-5-5-5-5-7-3-3-3-3-5-2-2-2-2------- B-3-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-8-3-3-3-3-6-3-3-3-3------- G-2-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-7-2-2-2-2-5-2-2-2-2------- D-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------- A--------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------- Guitar 2: E-2vvv----3-5vvv-----7-3vvv----5-2vvv--------- B--------------------------------------------- G--------------------------------------------- D--------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------- Then is the next set of verses which consists of a wicked duet between both guitars.....and, like the whole song, its quite easy =D Please note that Guitar 1 is strumming the chords (dur!

Not too hard eh? I know there's probably some place where I messed up at. I also know this is a new song, so if there's corrections that need to be made would please be so kind as to let me know and give me the corrections. Thank you so much. Oh and if anyone has the Styx song "These Are The Times" from the CYCLORAMA album tabbed, could you please send it to me via e-mail. Thanks, I'm dying to learn it. I'm like a die hard Styx fan here =P ROCK ON!! Chris glory99@pacbell.net P.S. here's the lyrics Waiting For Our Time by Styx Looking up from where I stand I see the vapor trail Of a jet plane in the sky Here the wheel is in my hand But there's no wind in my sails And life is drifting by Still I hold on and wait I know it's not too late And my breeze will come Muse you satisfy my soul Keep me warm while the Cold world guards the gate I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come Your love has kept my dream alive A vision of my life With you here by my side Every forward step I take Every moment I'm awake I feel your love inside So close I feel it in my bones I know I'm not alone as I climb this wall But I, sometimes I get so high I just want to live, love And taste it all I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time Here tonight I lie awake and watch you dream Under the light of the moon I wonder just how far we've been And where we'll be When the sun comes up Will this be our date with destiny I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time to come I'm searching I'm wondering I'm yearning Waiting for our time And I'm waiting
