Silence - Tea Party
Open C tuning (again):
e tuned down to d
B tuned up to C
G left the same
D tuned down to C
A tuned down to G
E tuned down to C
There are a lot of instruments in on this, so I'm VERY likely wrong. This
is just MY interpretation. The timing is probably wrong (I'm not that good).
It's just four dashes (-) for every quarter note. This is just a guess, but
I think it's in 4/4 timing (please correct me).
INTRO:

Si-lent spirit walks before me with her beauty and with her eyes
Heaven help me I feel I'm fading I should rest here for a while
(INTRO riff again)
VERSE riff over
In the dreamtime I'm awakened as my senses sieze the night
Heaven help me I'm foresaken I should rest here for a while
BRIDGE:
(For the beginning, just improvise by playing assorted notes on the B (C)
string and the two lower ones open (like the verse), but remember to keep
them in scale-just fool around with it).

Dry are the lips that lost the taste of love
Drown in the waters that would give you life
Cry as this lamentation thrusts its knife
