Can you remember, remember my name as I flow through
|C5 D5 | C5 D5 |F5 G5 | |
your life a thousand oceans I have flown ooh and
|Am |riff_1 |Am |riff_1 |
cold, cold spirits of ice.

All my life I am the echo of your past

|C5 D5 | C5 D5|F5 G5 | |

laughing as the spirits appear
|Am |riff_1 |Am | |
all your life shadows of another day

Well the 9/4 parts gave me a bit of a headace, so I chose to put a 5/4
measure there and keep the rest 4/4's. The accents in there come mostly
at the 2nd half of each 1/4. (As one-AND-two-AND...)

What to play on Am - riff_1: Basically it's just A5/Am through, but I noticed
that it's easier to keep track of where you are, if you count the riffs
especially, when you are singing. :)
