Guitar 1 is a 12 string acoustic, tuned EADGBD, with a capo on 4
Guitar 2 is an electric, standard tuning, capo 4
Rhythm figure 1:
Intro:
Rhythm figure 1 four times, bass and drums enter on third time
Verse: (Guitars tacet; chords implied by bass, vocals)
little man big man who came first
what is the measure of our worth
if the was a storm rolled in
Em (Guitar 1 enters here, playing the chords, lightly)
who'd run inside
who'd go walking
(w/ rhythm figure 1, twice)
little man big man what's inside
it's all in the places
where we find our pride
if there was a soul lost by the road
who'd pass by
who'd take it home
Chorus:
|--2/4-----4-----4-----4--|----------------0--*| these measures

where is the beast lying
is there a beast hiding
With rhythm figure 1 twice
Guitar 2 plays this, rhythm figure 1B, over rhythm fig. 1:
Verse: (guitar 2 tacet)
little man big man who is who
it's all in the damage that our toys can do
if there was a rock and a window pane
Em (guitar 2 enters again, playing chords)
who'd throw stones
who'd walk away
Chorus:
where is the beast lying
is there a beast hiding
Bridge: (guitar 2)
are we learning
are we moving
Verse:
little man big man fade away
it's all in the violence of the games we play
it's all in the violence of the games we play
it's all in the love we give today
