The song has a sort of verse/chorus pattern, punctuated with guitar solos. During the "verses" Larry plays simple variations on sections of the various guitar parts. As for the solos, the first one is essentially just a variation on the opening riff but an octave higher. The second one occurs after the first "chorus" and is tabbed above. The third one is a just a variation on the second one, and as it doesn't offer anything new I haven't tabbed it out, but I'm sure you'll work something out. And the chords throughout are Am F G Am. Lyrics/Chords: Am F You're a weapon of devotion G Am Keep the faithful entertained Am F You're a lover of attention G Am Found a way to pawn the soul Am F Disposition may be fetching G Am But the world moves on and leaves you far behind I hear you, I hear you, whispering such gorgeous stories I see you, I see you, trying to break free You liar, you liar, you can't live the dreams you're spinning You liar, love to be deceived You're falling, you're falling, falling from your god-like distance You're fashion, just fashion, fashion doesn't keep You're sour, so sour, all this hope and trust is misplaced You're sour, now you are alone Walking on fire, feel the way the world's inclining Walking on fire, hate to deceive Walking on fire, now the world will keep its distance Walking on fire, you rather than me My son says, dear father, what did you do when the world turned over Keep spinning, keep spinning, send us off to sleep You liar, you liar, all your words are just dust and moonshine You liar, love to be deceived Walking on fire, found a house away from humans Walking on fire, hate to deceive Walking on fire, now the world will keep its distance Walking on fire, you rather than me Transcribed by Alex Carter 2001. alex@shandy3000.fsnet.co.uk
