The Educated Fool

INTRO-Riff 1 (play it 2 times, Steve plays the chords):

    Em      |-let ring------>  C              G--------------|          D

During the first verse guitar 1 plays the chords by picking
the following pattern (this is just a sample so that you get the idea):

   Em            Em           Em        C           G        D
|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|------9---9--------9---9--------9---|-----5---5--------------------7----|

|-7-------------7------------7-------|-3-------------5---5---5--5--------|
|------------------------------------|-------------3---------------------|

         Em                    C                    G               D
  I'm an educated fool   so I don't know what it is I'm supposed to do
             Em                               C                     D
  About this awkward situation   that's been forced down right upon me
          Em                      C             G         D
  As I'm walking down into  on my own into the Valley of life

  Open the page...

The Second Verse is played (heavily!) distorted, so there's a new
pattern:

   Em                          C       G      D (let ring)
|---------------------------|--------------------------------|
|---------------------------|--------------------------------|
|-9-------9---9--9---9--9-9-|-5--5-----------7---------------|

        Em                                 C              G           D

  To the book of life ... or is it death is there ever anyway out
             Em                         C          G          D

              Em                            c               D
  They won't tell me what they see   but I really want to know

Repeat CHORUS RIFF 8 times, then

VERSE 3:
          Em                   C               G         D
  Do you really wanna be  just another one statistic or feel
            Em                             C                 D
  That you really should aspire  that you really do deserve more
         Em                           C              G         D
  Do you ever really feel   that you have so much potential inside
