I had to transcribe the lyrics by ear for now, so there's a few spots
I could not understand and just marked with "???". If anyone has lyrics suggestions,
please share!
Tuned one half-step down. Alternate between open/barre and power chords as you prefer.
Also, the outro with the solos goes on wayyy longer than I indicated, but it's the
exact same progression repeating over and over, so I didn't bother to copy and paste it
another dozen times. Just repeat til the end.
Repeating intro/melody riff goes like:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-5-5-7-9------7-9-7-5----5-5-7-9------7-9-7-5------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|

G|-5-5-7-9------4-4-5-7---10-10-10-9-9-7-5-5---7-9-7-5-----------|

Hammer on my six-string

Themselves and the world

To ignore the magic
[Chorus]

I extend my hand

As a friend and a lover

I extend my hand

As a son, as a brother
F
If we don't take time
F
And help one another
Am
We are destined for failure
G
And won't get to discover
F
There's a great new world
F
Out there we can explore

If we don't want to no more

Could be our last one

It's true

Like there was nothing good that you can do

I know exactly you're going through
[Chorus]
Am
And I extend my hand

As a friend and a lover

I extend my hand

As a son, as a brother

And listen to each other

And won't get to discover

There's a great big world

Out there we can explore
Am
And we don't have to hurt

Where life is always strange

Take a deep breath and

Let yourself embrace the change
