An awesome song! I saw a request for it (kinda a request) at the end of the tab
for "Amazing", and thought I'd give it a go. The lead riff is kinda tricky but
it's correct. I haven't seen the video for this song, or any live recordings of
Alex playing it, but I think it's all spot on. Comments? (Oh yeah, the chord Gm
is played right up at the 10th fret, I wrote out how to play it above, but it's
a bit hard to understand; you should get what I mean, though.)

VERSE 1
This house is your own
Still living alone
It don't make you sad
But I think it's good to be green
The summer is gone
And spring don't belong
The traces are here
For long winter
I miss the green
It used to be clean
PRE-CHORUS
If you want to be free
B#m
Please don't fall for me
I could be anyone but your friend
If you open the door
B#m
I'll give a whole lot more
I could be anyone but your friend
VERSE 2
Assumption is good
Though not likelihood
And my feeling is true
I want to be living with you
The truth it begins
We're breathing it in
With shadows of doubt
In time we will all miss the green
It used to be clean
CHORUS

Anyone ... anyone ...

Anyone ... yeah
(Seeing is believing, the feeling is deceiving
You know it's the truth
When you find that you can't talk
Leaving on this, all into chaos
Seeing is feeling is seeing is feeling is you)
