Here it is plain and simple its an easy song so it should be right
I'm not too sure about the solo but its pretty damn close
Intro:
AAA G CCC G AAA G C B (4X)
G A
yea they say theres a place free of trouble and care
and you have to pass a test for to make it there
A F
It has something to do with the road thats straight and narrow
C D A
and the only way to go it is by being right and thorough
D A (Play with a ska rthym)
theres always one more hill to climb
C E(high)
theres always one more hill to climb
-----------------------------------------------chorus-----------------------
A F C G A
bombarded by multiple choices 24-o-7
A F(high) C G
Navigating a tangled web of logic and passion
A F C G A
Guided by subconscious voices askewed and sharpened
F D G E
Tested Tested oh oh oh
-------------------------------------------------chorus---------------------
A F
At times we may be wondering what we're supposed to do
C D A
Stand and deliver or see the conflict through
F
and as we long to proceed to build our castles in the sky
C D A
our plans get confounded and determination dies
D A (ska rthym)
Thers no preperation and no guide
C E (high)
just what you've done before here with your life
(Play Chorus Here)
(play the bridge with intro chord progression)
acting on will.... the test is a reaction
opening your heart..... the test is the emotion
rolling the dice...... The test is the intuity
Burning out your mind..... the test is the recovery
