E-----------0-----------------------0----------------------|
F#--------------------------------------3--------3---------|
F#---------------------------------------------------------|
F#---------------------------------------------------------|
F#---------------------------------------------------------|

when Brave Men Run starts, T plays this...
                                                         gradual bend...
B-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------------(7)----------------------|
F#--5--5--5--5--5--5---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0---9--9--9--9--9--9--9-|
F#--5--5--5--5--5--5---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0---9--9--9--9--9--9--9-|
F#--5--5--5--5--5--5---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--(9)------------------|
F#--5--5--5--5--5--5---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----------------------|

after playing that a few times, go into this part:

B-------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------|
F#---5-----6--6--6--6(po)5------------| this might actually be a bend,
F#---5-----6--6--6--5-----------------| but it sounds good either way...
F#------------------------------------|
F#------------------------------------|

after playing that a few times, play this four times:

B------------------|
E----3----2-2-2-3--|
F#---1----0-0-0-1--|
F#---0----0-0-0-0--|
F#---0----0-0-0-0--|
F#---0----0-0-0-0--|

go back to the main riff, w/ one guitar just repeatedly strumming
this chord overtop:

B-------|
E---14--|
F#--12--|
F#---0--|
F#---0--|
F#---0--|

towards the end, one starts doing something like this:

F#----0(h)7---|
F#----0(h)7---|
F#----0(h)7---|
F#----0(h)7---|

when the vocals stop, one guitar strums behind the bridge while the
other plays:

B--------------------|
E----2------------3--|
F#---0------------1--|  repeat...
F#---0------------0--|
F#---0------------0--|
F#---0------------0--|

slowly fade as kim sings "brave men run away from me..."
