The intro here I am positive is 100%
 accurate, I havent seen any other 
correct tabs
for it around. The sections in which
 both guitars play at once are 
divided by the *********s

Enjoy!

 semi-tone down)

chorus lyrics:

Continues after the ad
Its over,
its only over,
its only over when we say

(Note on chorus riff: when the 
chorus guitar part is played 
immediately after the intro
riff, it is NOT repeated. i.e. You 
play it only once, and then go 
straight into the verse.)

Verse lyrics:

1. Who shot the bullet
   that killed the air tonight?
   without a thought
   without a reason

2. The smoke and mirrors
   The lies that wind your tongue
   Was this oppression what we 
wanted?
   Or what we needed?
