Marillion - Hope For The Future
===============================

Tabbed by Mike C ([email protected])

Tab Explanation
===============

s       Slide
h       Hammer-on
p       Pull-off
T       Tap
B       Bend the note to the fret after the B
R       Release back to the originally bent note
A.H.    Artificial Harmonic
m       Palm Muted
//      Trem Pick (Pick as fast as possible)

What a funky track! There's 2 acoustic guitars in this track. Guitar 1 provides
the main guitar parts for the track and has a capo on the 2nd fret. Guitar 2
has a small lead part at the beginning over the intro and verse 1 and provides
a more thickened last chorus with staccatoed chords. 
Enjoy!

Guitar 1 - Acoustic Guitar ***CAPO 2ND FRET***
Guitar 2 - Acoustic Guitar

I found a power on a dusty shelf 
Hey! the languages I learned
Now I'm so powerful I hurt myself 
I hurt myself 
I feel kind of limbic brain
Like the library of an astronaut
Found hidden in a pyramid 
Shadowing a body of thought

Twisting tales and spinning lines
