Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Brian probably plays this on a guitar tuned half a step down, like the rest of Neck of the Woods, this however
is for standard tuning.

A|-x--x--| x8
E|-7/-9--|
Verse 1
----------
C#m E
Little lights are over exposing the
A B
highlight, marks on the floor when
F#m E
aligned right lead to the door of a
G#m E
place that seemed somewhat exposed till now
C#m E
I'm back and punching the air
A B
A sneak attack to disrupt the smear on the
F#m E
laid tracks, I left when I broke off the
G#m E C#m
pavement, I still should be on I suppose
Interlude
----------
C#m (F#m E) x4
Verse 2
--------
C#m E
In a new skin I'm ready to spill what I'm
A B
never willing to share
F#/A# E
I disable the muscles and bones so they
G#m E
won't try to walk on the road
C#m E
Now I stand here with nothing to hide like the
A B
new born, hungry and wild
F#/A# E
But the ground I want to explore
G#m
Doesn't feel like before
Pre-Chorus
----------
E A F#m
Cause all I think about is why
C#m E
The skin I'm in feels ordinary

Don't grow inside of me
