Marillion - The Invisible Man
===============================

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)

Here's a beast of a track! I have attempted to tab this as best I can but you
will have to improvise through some of the quieter bits with a few random
noises such as scraping down the strings or tapping the pickups! Otherwise the
rest of it should be there! Enjoy!

Guitar 1 - Distorted Guitar
Guitar 2 - Acoustic Guitar
Guitar 3 - Very Slightly Distorted Guitar
Guitar 4 - Quite Distorted Guitar
==============================
Part 1 (just lots of random noises & incdicated parts for gtr. 1)

***A FEW SYNTH PARTS AND RANDOM GUITAR***

My body has gone
But my eyes remain
Hovering. Witnessing.
Cold as a ghost ..watching the streets
Sheltering in doorways of
Venice, Vienna,
Budapest, Krakow, and Amsterdam

Close behind you in St.Stephen
You lit a candle 
Blessings in the cold night air

If I close my eyes
I can see where you live
Climb the winding stairs
Up to your apartment
The scent of you preparing
His evening meal
I must watch in dread
When he's cruel to you
In horrified silence
As you make love
I cannot lift a hand 
Lift a hand to stop him 
I don't exist What can I do?
What can I do?
