I hear 3 guitars in this song. One is playing lead with distortion,
one is picking the chords with a clean electric, and one is 
strumming with acoustic. Anyways, this is how I play it. Also,
thanks to Ian Smith who helped with the lead. You'll have to listen
to the song to get the timing. This should be pretty accurate cuz I
watched the video and listened to the song a million times!

gtr. 1: elec. (clean)
gtr. 2: elec. (distorted; & clean at other times)
gtr. 3: accoustic

Also, just in case you want to know, the bass intro is like this
g|--------|
d|--------|
a|-------2|
E|-0-2-4--|

First, drums come in...then play this...

gtr 1.
e|---0--------0---|---0------------|---0--------0---|----------------|

g|------------------------------------------4-6--------------------9-|
d|-----------------------------------------------------------6h7p6---|
a|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

gtr 3. is Just strumming the chords that gtr 1. plays. Listen to cd to
get the pattern. You have to listen VERY CAREFULLY!

After the intro, all guitars are tracet until chorus. When you see a 
riff letter, look at bottom of page to see the riff.

C#m A2 E 
Everybody loves a rose
C#m A2 E riff:A 
Will you be thankful for the thorns
C#m A2 E riff:B
Love is easy when you're loved
C#m A2 E riff:C
Do you curse another when you're alone

CHORUS* **

C#m A2 riff:D E
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I give my
C#m A2 E riff:E
Life, to you, so I, can gain it back again
C#m A2 E
Ohhhhhhhhhohohhhhhhhohhohhh, I stand solid while the
F#m(upstroke) riff:F
Paradigm is shifting

On the Chorus and next verse, gtr 3. is strumming.

*only play riffs D,E, and F on this first chorus.

**at the part when the chorus starts, gtr 1. is doing this the first 

time through it: 
{+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++} 
e|---0--------0---|---0---0--------|---0--------0---|---0------------|
b|----------------|---------0------|----------------|----------------|
g|--6--------2----|--1---1---------|--6--------2----|--1-------------|
d|-6--------2-----|-2--------------|-6--------2-----|-2--------------|
a|4--------0------|2---------------|4--------0------|2---------------|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

do this 1&1/2 times. Then play the part with the {++++} over it x4 
for the next verse.

gtr 2.(clean) 2nd verse (If it helps, the part with the
last two harms is the part that goes "people are dying everyday")

e|16~~~~~\14-\12--12harm-----12harm------------12harm--------|
b|-------------------12harm-----12harm---------------12harm--|
g|-----------------------------------------------------------|

then after "people are dying everyday", play this little riff...
e|---------------------------|
b|---------------------------|
g|---------------------------|
d|--4-6-4---6/-7---6---4-----|
a|7------------------------7-|
E|---------------------------|

You say live and let live
But people are dying everyday. And you say (you say)
what I don't know won't hurt me, but if what I do not 
know is the very thing I need then I say (then I say)

CHORUS

This time for the chorus, gtr 2. is tracet and gtr 1. plays this:

d|-6--------2-----|-2--------------|
a|4--------0------|2---------------|
E|----------------|----------------|

after Chorus, this bridge comes up. Same chords. Gtrs. are tracet

BRIDGE:

riff:G

Humanity sees truth through shattered window panes, that block the 
View, and plant the seed and so we draw the curtains
to a close but I say...

gtrs. 1&2 (dist.) {power chords}
e|------------------------------------------------------------|
b|------------------------------------------------------------|
g|6-6-6-6-6---------------------------------------------------|
d|6-6-6-6-6---------7-7-7-------7-----------------------------|X 2

E|------------------5-5-5-------5-0-----0-0-----0---0-0--0--0-|

That the sun can still shine behind a closed mind and
sticks and stones do hurt when tossed from the throne of mankind

CHORUS

during this Chorus, gtrs. 1&2 (dist.) strum the power chords in
different patterns. Same power chords as above. But when you 
reach the part where it goes "while the paradigm keeps shifting",

g|--------------------6\---|
d|4-4-4-4-4-4---------6\---|
a|4-4-4-4-4-4---------4\---|
E|2-2-2-2-2-2-2h4p2h4------|

[pm means "palm mute". Just slightly palm muted.]

CHORUS- gtrs. 1&2 strum power chords again. After that, gtr 1. plays
2nd part of intro. then play this when the band starts going,
