How to play this song is very hard to explain, so you'll mostly have
to listen to the recording to figure out when you play what.  I'll put an
(*)
next to the Em-chord when you're supposed to play the intro riff.  Where I
don't
put an (*), just strum the Em chord.  But listen to the recording while you
read
the tab and play along and you'll figure it out.


Em*              Em*            Em*              Em*
World of pain, I try in vain to stand amidst the smoke and the stain

    Em*              Em*                     A      Em       G      Em
The brittle years of all the tears, all this crying out that nobody hears

             Em*                        Em*                      Em*
All of these hungry women, all of these hungry men, all of these angry
children

            Em*
What do you do with them?

Em*            Em*                     A      Em           G        Em
World of pain, world of pain, all this lying, lying in the world of pain

It . . . . . . . . . . . .  yeah,      woah-woah



You're over there, in your chair, no touching allowed, so I only stare
But I do not believe, oh, I am not deceived,
Yes, I'll be breathing again, through the sound of the pain
All of these hungry feelings, all of these angry feelings
You see are set in motion, falls into angry oceans
World of pain, oh, world of pain, oh, lying, lying in the world of pain
Saying it don't feel like the truth when we're together, baby
It don't feel like the truth when we're together, yeah


Em                                Em
Son of a bitch has stole my boat,locked the chain around my throat

Em                                Em
Threw the ball out in the moat, waved goodbye and hope it floats

     A                            Em
Do I scream a little louder, do I scream a little louder

         Em*
Should I scream a little louder, baby?  Yeah

Em                          Em
Day was quiet as the night, now it's deadly everyday

Em                            Em
Why must I stay out of sight, why must I feel and never say

     A                                Em
Do I scream a little louder, should I scream a little louder

     Em*
Do I scream a little louder baby?   Yeah

Sit on the shore, waiting for someday, sit in the cold, waiting for one day
I do not believe, I do not believe, lying, lying in the world of pain
World of pain, oh, world of pain, lying, lying in the world of pain, saying
It don't feel like the truth when we're together, baby
It don't feel like the truth when we're together, yeah
It don't feel like the truth when we're together, baby
It don't feel like the truth when we're together, yeah
