Stage

Intro:
Note: I always thought that this was
 just a straightforward
      F#5 strumming, however, upon 
closer listen, you can
      clearly hear the changes from 
244xxx to 044xxx
      When playing, try to focus on 
strumming the E and A
      strings more. You may want to 
just play the chords as
      24xxxx and 04xxxx

Note 2: Listen to the recording to 
get how this is played
        I prefer all downstrum, but 
you may play whatever way you wish


(Played fast)

(Play 4 times and lead into Verse)


Verse:
(* =  After chord is played, 3 muted
 harmonics are played quickly 
between
      To do this, move your pointer 
finger from the 2nd to 3rd fret;
      lightly touching the E string 
and strum away. You'll hear the same
      sound as on the recording).


F#5*             F#5*

Pre-chorus:

(Bass only)
People I've seen my day, ranting and
 raving this beauty away
We are by and large the same, but 
words are too feeble, they cannot 
contain


Chorus 1:

*F#5  E5  D5    B5
He was a rock 'n roll Messiah

A5      D5            E5
She was known for her childcare

*F#5     E5    D5          B5
Truth is gonna give up the World

    Don't do this, wake me up to...

D5       D5       D5    D5
night. Tonight, tonight...

(strum F#5 once and hold into solo)


Solo:
Note: This was difficult to make out
 on the recording,
      so it is more than likely not 
100%. Just fool around with
      it and you will come close. Or
 you can always improvise
      if you're good. :)

 backing)
