||---0--2-s-3--3--3--2--0--3--2--0--2-s-3-s-2--0--2-s-3-s-2---||

Then when the lyrics start again play what's below 4 times:

THIRTEEN APOSTLES, KNOCKING AT MY DOOR, TELLING ME THAT I CAN'T,...

||---0--2-s-3--3--3--2--0--2-s-3-s-2--0--3-s-5--5--5---||
||---0--2-s-3--3--3--2--0--2-s-3-s-2--0--3-s-5--5--5---||

||---0--2-s-3--3--3--2--0--2-s-3-s-2--0--3-s-5--5--5---||
||---0--2-s-3--3--3--2--0--2-s-3-s-2--0--3-s-5--5--5---||

After the first 8 bars go back to the first 4 bars and repeat again.

==========================================================================

The rest of the song follows a similar format only the guitars get heavier,
louder and more obnoxious than before.  I will try to figure out the rest
of the song later on.  This should get you through at least the first few
seconds.  They are ofcourse the coolest seconds of the whole song.

By the way.  If you don't all ready know, The Tea Party are fuckin' awesome
live.  Go and see them.  I dare you to.  If they are not going to wherever
you live then I would pay the plane fare to the nearest venue just to see
them.  Why not come to Brisbane to see them with me.  Their last concer was
about 2 1/2 hours long.
