Lifeline - Tea Party
Tabbed by: Bob Wildauer

This is my first tab, hope you enjoy it.  The tuning I used was open C:
(Low to High) C,G,C,G,C,E.  I'm sure you can do it in another tuning, but
quite a few Tea Party songs use this tuning.  Anyway, this tab is hardly 
exact, I have a bad ear for figuring things out.  But it should at least
give you a general idea as to how this song goes. For the chorus, just play
the first lead part to start it, second lead part 4 times (I think) during, 
and close with the third part.  I also wrote song structure/tried to figure
out lyrics at the bottom of the tab.

Intro:
E-----------------------------0h1p0--------------------------|
C----------------------------------0-------------------------|
G----------------0-----5^-\3-----------------0-------3^\5----|
C-----------4--5---4-5-------------------4--5---4--5---------|
G------------------------------------------------------------|
C-0-4h5p4p0--------------------------------------------------|

*Note:  Where I have the C (on G) bent and then slid to A#, he 
actually tunes the note on the C string down to A#, then back up later
in the riff.  I just find sliding/bending a lot easier on the strings.

Lyrics:
See this Lifeline in chains
Seek resistance mistrained (?)
Listless lover of stars
Makes me wonder how far you've come

All you've learned, you've forgotten
You desperate soul, you're lost again.

Can't help feeling betrayed
Nothing's come from the grave
Helpless angel of fate
How much longer to wait.

All you've learned, you've forgotten
You desperate soul, you're lost again.

Don't you see all this time.
Takes away, takes the place of up above
Can't you see life's here and it's shining.
Look around. I've been waiting, love.

Crushed by lies in the dark
Help them tear you apart
listless lover of stars
Makes me wonder how far you've come

All you've learned, you've forgotten
You desperate soul, you're lost again.

Don't you see all this time.
Takes away, takes the place of up above
Can't you see life's here and it's shining.
Look around. I've been waiting, love.
