And Our Heart Beat In Our Fingertips, Without Reason
My Wrists Are Rivers, My Fingers Are Words

Tuning: Drop C (C G C F)

***Another Note***
This song also is littered with effects. It also features some very unorthidox playing.
These things happen when you work with a producer that really understands you as a player
and what you are looking for without knowing it.
I blame this all on the mad scientist Mr. Justin Beck, and now you have to deal with
the repicussions as well. Enjoy!

Effects needed for whole song: OOber Heavy Overdrive, and a good Noise Gate to keep it 
during
                               rests.

Intro 1: (for all the 70's prog fans)
