Slide Away

This song is a bass type of song (were the bass punches most
 of the harmony) and guitar play mostly lead parts. So I have tabbed the bass 
part. It has a rhythm guitar, but they don't pla thru the whole song, holding 
most of the harmony on the bass, keyborad or ebow (wich is my case), so a 
made a arrangement. I hope you all like this - it's my favorite Storm in 
Heaven song.

The rhythm part of the verse, as well the intro, can be played on 
A and G all the way thru, but i have included this fig. so it don't 
sound so boring if you are playing without a bass player. Just play 
it in some bars, alternating it with the A G pattern. Feel free to add
funky (a la James Brown) rhythm figs., and to deconstruct this patern.

After that theres a quiet part, Mc'Abe plays some single notes w/ a 
lot of delay, and in the outro he plays something high, but too 
much blured for me to tab - just play some improvisation over the intro
theme. In the chorus just play the riff 1.
 
Lyrics:

(riff 1)  

Verse 1: 
G              A
 So take your time 
G (riff 2)                                       A
 I wonder if you're here just one way to use my mind 
                 G
 Don't take it slow
 (riff 2)                     A
 You know I've got a place to go
 
 You always do that
G 
 Something I'm not sure of
A
 But just for today
G
 Let go and slide away

 Chorus:
 A                                      G
 I was thinking maybe we could go outside
                                        D    
 Let the night sky cool you foolish pride
                            G                         A
 Don't you feel alive these are you times and our highs
 (riff 1)

 Verse 2:
 So take your time
 I wonder which cup you drink from I hope it's mine
            (riff 3)
 Because you always do that something
 Sonething I'm not sure of but just for today
 Let go and burn away (riff 4)
 Cause I read you mind
 I need it because it takes me where I can't find
 Because you always do that something
 Something I'm not quite sure of
 but just for today
 Let go and burn away

 Chorus:
  A                                  G  
 I was thinking maybe we could go outside
                                     D
 Let the night sky cool you foolish pride
                             G                         A
 Don't you feel alive these are you times and our highs

 Outro:
 Slide Away burn away
 Slide Away burn away
 I read you mind

 Chorus
