Song Structure:

The song begins with Mike oh-ohing and the Main Riff being played repeatedly.  The Main Riff plays all the way through the song, but at most times is barely audible.
During the verses the chords are strummed in a kind of sporadic manner.  When changing from Bb to F, hammer on from Bb to Bbsus4, then pull off to Bb, and then pull off again to Bbsus2.  During the second verse the Second Verse Riff is played repeatedly.

Lyrics/Chords:

F            Bb

F            Bb

F
  A diva, a lever, a lawyer  

          Bb
Imagine. Imagine

  F
A fever, a vision, derision  

            Bb
Imagine.  Imagine.

F
Someone got hurt

Someone got high

            Bb
Someone got left behind the lines

F
Someone got hurt 

Someone got high

             Bb
Some of them left the rest behind

Eb              Bb           F
    All of your mail is unaddressed

        Dm      C             Bb
Cut the Hermann free from the Hesse

          F              Am             Bb
Cra-ah-ah-ash, Cra-ah-ah-ash, Cra-ah-ah-ash

          F              Am             Bb
Cra-ah-ah-ash, Cra-ah-ah-ash, Cra-ah-ah-ash


A letter, a photo, etc, etc, a Judas

A hotel, a motel, a motive.

Imagine. Imagine

Someone got hurt

Someone got high

Someone got left behind the lines

Someone got hurt someone got high 

Some of them left the rest behind 

All of your mail is unaddressed 

Cut the Hermann free from the Hesse

Crash, crash, crash

This is hell

This is hell

Crash, crash, crash
