Time Consumer - Coheed and Cambria
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: joecool71

Tuning: Drop D (DADGBE)
This is the first song in my new Coheed and Cambria series. The intro is
very difficult to hear on the cd, but there are two separate parts both times
through. You'll have to listen closely if you want to peel them apart. Enjoy!

LYRICS AND RIFF PLACEMENT
[INTRO W/ LEAD 1]
[INTRO W/ LEAD 2]
[FILL 1]
[VERSE W/ LEAD1] X8
The young stale memories of play the role to your part
Librarian find me the pole the one that kicks your head in
With my own time role your own innocence by
Grab onto my sleeve the one that grabs at your ankle
Debate to understand that we all have a flaw
Then fail to represent life as you know it
God grant you one wish to turn back the time... correct and create
[CHORUS] X2
Me and my star Matthew good night
You know by law when you'll be forgiven
Maria my star Matthew good night
You know my lord when you'll be forgiven
[VERSE W/ LEAD 2] X4
So they pulled your confidence down with those verbal discrepancies
Now and then you'll gain what they've lost through a challenge of unpronounced
Pain is only a pulse if you just stop feeling it
You might be able to use the very thing that makes us up
[CHORUS] X2
Me and my star Matthew good night
You know by law when you'll be forgiven
Maria my star Matthew good night
You know my lord when you'll be forgiven
[FILL 2]
[BRIDGE] X4
Wait now, here, when will you believe?
Me I'm merely asking you to help me when did I say to murder?
Wait now, here, please hear me out
Time consumer, time consuming, consume me
