INTRO: play Rhy. Fig.1 two times

ring)
1 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 2 & 3 & 4 &
VERSE 1: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 1)
How does this rhyme?

Rhy.

Fig4 G D C CM7 C D

CHORUS: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 2, 1x Rhy.Fig 3, 1x Rhy.Fig 4)
Down under a locking key, there's a
brain tagged to every secret
Now comes the time to figure out
whether we should keep it
Feel familiar and I wanna feel some more
Have I ever laid my hands on you before?
VERSE 2: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 1)
This must sound weird
it's like you appeared inside me
'Cause every time
you recognize my state of life
Rhy.

CHORUS 2: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 2, 1x Rhy.Fig 3, 1xRhy.Fig 4 and 1x Rhy.Fig 5)
Down under a locking key
there is a brain tagged to every secret
If I could keep my mouth shut
there's a chance that I might even keep it
Feel familiar and I wanna feel some more
Have I ever laid my hands on you before?
Well have I ever laid my hands on you before?
'Cause I'm not sure
BRIDGE: (2x Rhy.Fig 1, doubled by heavy distorted guitar)
VERSE 3: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 1)
Total freedom beneath the waves
Floating through the Arkan caves
Synchronized in space and time
Leaving all besides behind
Rhy.
Fig6 G (*)-means cymbal (no other instruments)
1 2 3 4 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
CHORUS 3: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 2, 2x Rhy.Fig 3, and Rhy.Fig6 on last G)
Down under a locking key
We put a brain-tag to every secret
And now comes the time to figure out
whether we should keep it
Feel familiar and I wanna feel some more
Have I ever laid my hands on you before?
Well have I ever laid my hands on you before?
And have I ever laid my hands on you before?
SOLO: (not transcribed, play 4x Rhy.Fig 1)
CHORUS 4: (with 4x Rhy.Fig 2, 1x Rhy.Fig 3, 2x Rhy.Fig 4, 1x Rhy.Fig5)
Down under a locking key
put a brain-tag to every secret
If I can make my mind up
there's a chance that I might even keep it
Feel familiar and I wanna feel some more
Have I ever laid my hands on you before?
Well have I ever laid my hands on you before?
And have I ever laid my hands on you before?
