Tuning: Standard - E A D G B E
A very nice little song. Has a lot of different parts and there are usually
several instruments playing different things at once which make up the sound
you hear. I've tabbed out all of the guitar parts as well as the main piano
riff for guitar. Have a listen to the song and have a play around with
putting which parts where and when. I've also, however, included what the guitar plays
when. Enjoy.

*************
Song order
*************
Piano riff repeats through intro and verses.
Riff 1 comes in halfway through first verse and repeats through verse.
Fill 1 played halfway through first chorus and leads into
Riff 2 which is played in the second half of the first chourus.
Bridge is repeated twice after chorus.
Riff 1 repeats all through second verse.
Fill 1 leads in to second (and final) chorus.
Riff 2 plays all through final chorus.
Last half of final chorus has a hybrid of riff 1 and 2 where riff 1 is
played during the rests in riff 2.
But like I said, have a listen and have a play around with it.

Lyrics
**********
Alive, all of the colour in the night
Laying down beside my side
And the restless in your eyes
To reach before the morning rise
Out on the street corner again
I turn around to see my friends
Some get forward, some get low
But no-one knows which way to go
Rock it to the break of day
Don't stop rocking now, no way
If everybody feels the same
This is why we play these games
Rock it to the early dawn
Soon those good good times will be gone
Everything I ever had
If I could have one night like that
C'mon, DJ play us one more song
We've been waiting all night long
Just about to lose our minds
So play that rhythm one more time
And now they're clearing out the floor
We never made it there at all
Still not ready to go home
But no-one knows which way to go
