    I recently got a request for help with this one.  Note that this has not been completely worked out, 
should act as a foundation for you to work on.  I found a little help for this from a friend of mine.
Notes:  Rhy Fig 1 is played for the intro and also through the verses.  Rhy Fig 2 is played during 
chorus.
        The intro sections should be played with distortion, so turn the gain up!  The chorus 
is played with very light distortion with some sort of a wave-like effect added.

The lyrics:
     Verse 1:  Lost and alone in this city of darkness
              Empty of lovers and full of lies
              You build a wall between your dreams and the madness
              I reach out my hand, but you run and hide
Pre chorus 1:  I've watched you cry in the rain
               I wanna bring back the joy again
    Chorus 1:  Open your heart to mine
               I believe, I believe
               You might be lucky this time
               You might be lucky this time
     Verse 2:  No guarantees when you risk your emotion
               So you surrender and it all went astray
               Bitter and hopeless in your cold isolation
               But you my love won't ever fade away
Pre chorus 2:  I wanna dry all your tears, yes
               You know there's nothing to fear, baby
    Chorus 2:  (Same as chorus 1)
      Bridge:  And when the shadows start to fall
               Let my love break down the walls
