Hej, I simply love this song but see that not too many people share my
opinion that it's the new album's best song, so probably there wont be
any tabs too soon. Anyway, let's do this!
For Intro and Verse repeat these chords:
 Am-  F-  C- E  
The trumpet intro goes somewhat like this:
e|--------------------------------0-3-4---5-7-8-(5)------|
B|-----------------------0-1----3------------------------|
G|------------------1-2----------------------------------|
D|----------2-3------------------------------------------|
A|-0----2-3----------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
On the high five (ha) the dubbed second trumpet joins in with a repeat.
See my both hands tied
beneath our freezing sky
guess my fortune's out
silent dream silent shout
clock tick slower now
Armageddon creeping on
I'm waiting for the dawn to come and
free my soul
But it's yCou, I see my lovEe come shining thFrough
but it's so hard tGmrying to get close to yCou
I see my onEly love tied in a teFar
and it's so Gmhard to get close to yBou
-----INTRO-----
Rain of needles and pain
thunder of howling train
scream my name, rise again
shine again, get on track again
and I like the fact that Im getting old
and I don't know what to do
when all I need is
you close to my heart
But It's you, I see my love come shining
through
but it's so hard trying to get close to you
I see my only love tied in a tear
and it's so hard to get close to you
-----Solo-----
When you're lonely I'll be there for you
If you only would let me through
When you're lost I'll guide you're way
If only you could hear my prayer
When you're lonely I'll be there for you
If only you would lead me through
When you're lost I'll guide your way
If only you could hear my prayer
I'm the rain when your well has dried
If only you could me mine 
END on am.
Hope I got something right. Correct me!

On the high five (ha) the dubbed second trumpet joins in with a repeat.

See my both hands tied

beneath our freezing sky

guess my fortune's out

silent dream silent shout

clock tick slower now

Armageddon creeping on

I'm waiting for the dawn to come and

free my soul

C E F

But it's you, I see my love come shining through

Gm C

but it's so hard trying to get close to you

E F

I see my only love tied in a tear

Gm B

and it's so hard to get close to you

-----INTRO-----

Rain of needles and pain

thunder of howling train

scream my name, rise again

shine again, get on track again

and I like the fact that Im getting old

and I don't know what to do

when all I need is

you close to my heart

But It's you, I see my love come shining

through

but it's so hard trying to get close to you

I see my only love tied in a tear

and it's so hard to get close to you

-----Solo-----

When you're lonely I'll be there for you

If you only would let me through

When you're lost I'll guide you're way

If only you could hear my prayer

When you're lonely I'll be there for you

If only you would lead me through

When you're lost I'll guide your way

If only you could hear my prayer

I'm the rain when your well has dried

If only you could me mine

END on am.
