Tabbed: J. Griff (artificial_inside@yahoo.com)
Comments: I was watching this song on Thrice's Myspace Transmissions a
little while ago. I figured I could find a tab for this song, but there
weren't any. So, I wanted to tab the song for myself. Most of this song is
played on a piano. I've never tabbed out a piano song on a guitar before,
so this tab may be rough. This would be my second Thrice tab and fifth one
overall. If there are any corrections let me know. Please rate and comment.

Notes:
To play the verses, you strum in quarter notes. Also, I'm shortening the
Gsus4 to G4 to fit between the other chords. The Em2 is actually an Em. I put
a 2 beside it to avoid confusion between the chords played in the verses and
the chorus.
Intro/Verse:
Was there a time that we know peace;
when all the children had a place to sleep
when rhetoric was not e----nough?
Was there a time we weren't at war
When we knew what our hearts and hands were for?
I don't believe there e---ver was.
It's always been a lie,
a soothing lullaby
We'll soon be swallowed by the sea
Was there a time we looked around,
and do we really even want to know what's going down
Well I think no one really does
We'd rather close our eyes
sing soothing lullabies
We'll soon be swallowed by the sea
The water's rising now
and we will surely drown
if we don't turn around
