MASTER & SLAVE
Simmons, Thayer, Kulick
[Intro Rhy. Fig 1]
[Rhy. Fig 2]
[Bass only]
Life, a movie in my head
A page of lines we read
The words remain unsaid
[Rhy. Fig 3]
[Bass only]
Time, a race you never win
Look back at where we've been
And throw the towel in
[Rhy. Fig 3]
[Rhy. Fig 1]
Every time I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
I just wanna take my turn
Now before I crash and burn
[Rhy. Fig 2 without last bar]
Yeah
[Bass only]
Hope, a candle burning bright
A temporary light
'Till we return tonight
[Rhy. Fig 3]
[Rhy. Fig 4]
Love, the mighty drug we crave
The master and the slave
Will rule us to our grave
[Rhy. Fig 3]
[Rhy. Fig 1]
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
I just want a place to rest,
Count to four and catch my breath
One, Two, Three, Four...
[Rhy. Fig 5 clean]
I don't know what to feel
Don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
[Rhy. Fig 6]
[Rhy. Fig 5]
I don't know where to go
Don't know who to be
Don't know who to know
[Rhy. Fig 7]
[Solo over Rhy. fig 5]
[Rhy. Fig 8]
[Bass only]
Life is never what it seems
It shakes you from your dreams
Wake up and start to
[Rhy. Fig 1]
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
[Rhy. Fig 9]
I just want a place to rest
Stop and let me catch my breath
[Rhy. Fig 1]
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
[Rhy. Fig 9]
Forget all that I've been told
I just wanna lose control
[Rhy. Fig 1]
Everytime I see a sign
Tell me what's the bottom line
Tell Me
[Rhy. Fig 9]
I just wanna take my turn
Now before I crash and burn
