  lost in a circle, no window to find
  a casual viewing could not rev your mind
  there's safety in numbers but i'm not impressed
  a prayer for the taking, it's comes down to this

  B > G > B > G > A > B > G > B > G > A > F# > G# > F# > E

Play these chords like this, some of these last longer than others for instance 
the A is just a passing chord between the G and the B, listen and you'll get it
Also use lots of slides to move between the chords

   B   G   A   F#  E
  -0---0---0---0---0---
  -0---0---0---0---0---
  -8---4---6---3---1---
  -9---5---7---4---2---
  -9---5---7---4---2---
  -7---3---5---2---0---


  it's cold inside, there's a ghost in waiting
  i'm always inclined to believe what i've seen
  the story was right, though i might get it wrong
  i promise to try but still can't remember why

Play this along with a second guitar hitting even quick chord strums

   G6                              B

  remind me why i'm here again, assembled me and all my plans
  be sure to read them well so you can tell
  and will you be the one to tell me wrong
  when i feel so right about the reasons why we get along because the years are (?)
  we can't let time just drift away
  say everything i was meant to say
  and get me to the point i freak you out

      Asus2 F#m     F
  without a doubt

Keep using the open chord shapes from above here (and at the very end)

     G           A       B
  it all comes down to this (repeated)

Solo

  G6 > E > G6 > B > G6 > E > G6 > B


(jake)
will you lend your mind when i get dark (?)
a flash of reason just a spark
to bring you back again, my only friend
but please let me pass before you leave
because i don't want to make believe
that you're not here with me
because you freaked me out, without a doubt

it all comes down to this (repeated)

(bayliss)
there's safety in numbers, but i'm not impressed
a prayer for the taking, it's comes down to this

   C           D       E
it all comes down to this
