Album: How to dismantle a atomic bomb
Tabbed by : Maic eykemans (maic@supermail.nl)

       AEAEAG#mF#mE
Intro: 							
A          E               A
  I'm 'round the corner from anything that's real
  E  A
I'm across the road from hope
     G#m
I'm under a bridge in a rip tide
 F#m     E
That's taken everything I call my own
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A     E                   A
  I'm on an island at a busy intersection
    E                     A
I can't go forward, I can't turn back
              G#m
Can't see the future
         F#m
It's getting away from me
        E
I just watch the tail lights glowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        G#m
One step closer to knowing
   F#m     E
Knowing, knowing
A E A E A G#m F#m E
A       E
  I'm hanging out to dry
                    A
With my old clothes
      E      A
Finger still red with the prick of an old rose
      G#m
Well the heart that hurts
       F#m
Is a heart that beats
                         E
Can you hear the drummer slowing?
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        G#m
One step closer to knowing
   F#m     E
Knowing, knowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        E
One step closer to knowing
A        G#m
One step closer to knowing
   F#m     E
Knowing, knowing
