Repeat basspicking here with the chords
Dm
Up a narrow flight of stairs
F Dm
In a narrow little ro-o-oom,
As I lie upon my bed
C
In the early evening gloom.
Dm
Impaled on my wall
F Dm
My eyes can dimly se-e-e
C
The pattern of my life
Bb C Dm
And the puzzle that is me.
Then at the dm it does the intro again..and a little bend at 3rd fret of the D string
e........... 11 1
b........... 33 3
g........... 22 2
d.1/3/1/3 0 0 (then 3half step bend to four 2 times then open again)
a...........
D............ 0 0
Same pattern whole song isnt that ironic..joke heh
Dm
From the moment of my birth
F Dm
To the instant of my de-e-eath,
There are Patterns I must follow
C
Just as I must breathe each breath.
Dm
Like a rat in a maze
F Dm
The path before me li-i-ies,
C
And the pattern never alters
Bb C Dm
Until the rat dies.
Dm
And the pattern still remains
F Dm
On the wall where darkness fe-e-ell,
And it's fitting that it should,
C
For in darknesss I must dwell.
Dm
Like the color of my skin,
F Dm
Or the day that I grow o-o-o-old,
C
My life is made of Patterns
Bb C Dm
That can scarcely be controlled.
And at the ending they do the intro again
(This Part)

And thats it im sorry if its a little unorthadoxed, but i dont have any decent programs and I just love this song so much i figured to share the knowledge of the song that i have.. I did this by ear but if you play along and get the song its pretty simple....good luck...enjoy :) mikey
