This seems to be a pattern that LIVE chose for this album
D5II | 5 5 7 7 5 5
Verse 1:
(Note: Listen for strumming pattern on final G5)
So many people die every day, who lived every night without hope
Spendin' their time just standin' in line
Tuggin' on society's coat
So many people live every day like they ain't never gonna get old
Doin' their time like carps in the slime
Submarines with no periscopes
(Note: Guitar 2 plays the following fill where noted):
* (10) is only played 2nd time
|---------10~~----(10)--12p10-9~~--|
Chorus 1:
(Note: Guitar 1 plays fill, Guitar 2 plays chords)
Fill:
dududdududuuuuuuuuuuuu
Oooh..... you are not alone
Oooh..... you are not alone
Verse 2:
(Note: Listen for strumming pattern on final G5)
So many people keepin' the pace, just the other side of grace
Fakin' their smiles, just rankin' the file
Wild cheetahs but in a cage, oh baby now
So many people can't see the signs,
even though their eyes are just fine (their eyes are just fine)
Hittin' the stage a day late for the show
Astronomers with no telescopes
(Note: Guitar 2 plays the following fill where noted):
* (10) is only played 2nd time
|---------10~~----(10)--12p10-9~~--|
Chorus 2:
(Note: Guitar 1 plays fill, Guitar 2 plays chords)
Fill:

Oooh..... you are not alone
Oooh..... you are not alone, no child!
Oooh..... you are not alone, no child!
Oooh..... you are not alone.....
Bridge:
1st time end. 2nd time end.
Oooh...... Oooh..... Oooh..... Oooh......
Oooh...... Oooh..... Oooh..... Oooh......
Nothin' in the world could keep me from lying next to you
Nothin' in the world could keep me from flying next to you
