Tuning-Standard

***Bear with me.  I know everyone says that every tab is their first tab, but this one genuinely is my first tab.  I know that these chords are right, i just saw them live in Detroit a few days ago.  The way they play it live is really unique.  Chris plays the acoustic throughout the second verse, and then at the second chorus the rest of the band comes in.  So i have the chords listed above the lyrics, and im 100% sure the chords are right!!!  I dont give a *** about ratings, but what the hell, do it anyway!***

*The lead riffs, as played by Tom Morello, are "Guitar 2".  Im working on the solo!*

*Listen to song for rhythm*

Intro: Am


-Verse 1-
Guitar 1
F          C       G       Am         
Pearls and swine bereft of me
F        C        G        Am 
Long and weary my road has been
F                 C*       G           Am*
I was lost in the cities; Alone in the hills
F            C*        G         Am*
No sorrow or pity for leaving I feel

Guitar 2
Play along with Guitar 1, punctuating the chords marked with an asterik (*)


-Chorus 1-
Guitar 1
   C    G                D                Am 
   I am not your rolling wheels; I am the highway
   C    G               D              Am
   I am not your carpet ride; I am the sky

Guitar 2
   I am not your rolling wheels; I am the highway
   C    G                D                Am

-Verse 2-
Guitar 1
F           C            G        Am
Friends and liards don't wait for me

F        C      G    Am
I'll get on all by myself

F                 C*        G      Am*
I put millions of miles; Under my heels

F             C*        G     Am*
And still too close to you I feel
