?So Impossible?
Performed by Opal
Words and Music by Mike Lemense
From ?The Rodent?s Apprentice? and ?A Rock Musical?
Notes
Standard Tuning
Pretty Slow pace during verses, pretty fast pace at refrain and bridge
IMPORTANT NOTE
There are two odd chords introduced in this song, and I?m not sure what they are called (sorry!). But I do 
what they are after having seen Mike Lemense play it live. The first one is some sort of C-Variation and 
looks like this: 320100
So basically C moved up a string, or down in note. The other chord is an E variation where you just put 
pinky down on the A string while playing E, so in the end that chord looks like this: 022130
Got it? So where it says C Variation, play the first chord I tabbed, and where it says E variation play 
second one. I?m sorry I don?t know the chord names but I?m positive that?s what Mike Lemense plays.
Verse
C#mWhat is sAo impossible?
	 			E   CVariation
About a world dream, is it as far as it seems,
C#mAnd whAat?s so unbelievable?
	 			         E   CVar.
About a world of heart, must things always fall apart,
	    			    E   EVar.
we need a powerful peacemaker for this thing to start
C#mAnd what criAmes are so illegal?
	   			     E   CVar.
That this child must die, and this mother must cry
C#mAnd what terribAle crimes of evil?
	       			         E   CVar.
Made these men of faith, turn their love to hate,
        			            E   EVar.
well everyone waits, for them to end the debate
Bridge
C#mAnd everyoGne has wEaited for too long,
C#mAnd everyonCe has done Esomething wrong,
C#mO you may be like D7I, you gGive a silent cryC,
C#mbut it won?Gt bring peaCce, it won?t sEave that person?s life
C#mO you may be liD7ke me, you Ggive a Csilent plea,
C#mbut it won?Gt bring pCeace it won?t bring harmonEy
Refrain
B7And CI?vGe sDensed God raCise his browG, what?s there left to believe in now
B7How can iGt stiCll remain Bunknown, Cthat we are all made Eof flesh and bone,
D                     B                         G                                   B7          C
And why can?t Gthese people live together in their home, for everyone one of them stands
Emalone
Other Verse
What is uncompromising?
About a world of love, you wouldn?t care what your made of
What is so surprising?
About where we are now, after how you knocked us down, they say don?t come around, if you really care
What is so wonderful and great?
That we smile today, while another?s life is taken away
What is it that motivates?
Us to fight these wars, what the hell is it all for, we?re given command of destiny and still we want more
That?s it, in case you haven?t heard the song, you repeat the first verse set after the second one, and 
is a solo in there somewhere, but I can?t tab it, I?m not good with leads and Claude Lerose is amazing. 
that?s it, if someone wants to tab out the solo feel free to do so please.

IMPORTANT NOTE

There are two odd chords introduced in this song, and I?m not sure what they are called (sorry!). But I do

what they are after having seen Mike Lemense play it live. The first one is some sort of C-Variation and

looks like this: 320100

So basically C moved up a string, or down in note. The other chord is an E variation where you just put

pinky down on the A string while playing E, so in the end that chord looks like this: 022130

Got it? So where it says C Variation, play the first chord I tabbed, and where it says E variation play

second one. I?m sorry I don?t know the chord names but I?m positive that?s what Mike Lemense plays.
