(The few whammy bar presses are slight. Also, there's a harmonic note 
played on keyboard when the first muted string plays. 
The keyboard part is D, or close to it.)

"Land of promise, land foretold where it was written that we would grow old in drafty Bungalows by the sea... 
Now it's over." 

(Again, slight pressing of the whammy. Subtle. 
Also, the first of the two open D notes followed by the next gives a slight Sitar sound.)

Legend:

Above Tab: 

0:00 to 0:05 (example) = Shows when parts are in the song.  

In Tab: 

* = Mute the string or strings. 
/ = Slide up.  
\ = Slide down.  
WB = Whammy Bar. 
sb = Slight Bend. (Bend the string, but only a little.)  
FB = Feedback-ish sound. (Only shows up in chart at 2:16.) 
svc = Slight Vibration Cancellation. To do this, lightly touch the played string above the fretted note 
(closer to the pickups) with another finger to stop the string from vibrating as much.  
This only shows up by the end at 2:31. 

Marks Surrounding Notes: 

m = Fingertip Mute the note; don't palm mute. Instead, have your finger slightly farther  
than the normal fretting position, so your fingertip mutes the string. Your fingertip must  
be on top of the fret. 

Below Tab: 

. or ... = Palm mute. (If present, this is above any the down strum and up strum marks.) 

^ = Down Strum. 
V = Up Strum.

Lyrics: 
========= 

"Once again, the columns fall; the mighty arches and marble halls 
in piles of rubble and limbs and heads, the empty eyes of the dusty dead 
their lives abolished without their names, their songs and stories up in flames 
the vast repository of everything we've loved is lost and falls. 
Falls away, hey hey. 
Irretrievable from the fathomlessnes of yesterday. 
And as far as the eye can see, there is ruin without reason. 
There is ruin without end. 
And I think we must be back where we started again! 

Land of promise, land foretold, where it was written that we would grow old in drafty bungalows by the sea; 
now it's over. 
And you're strange, oh my lover, oh my friend, 
when you say that this is a beginning, 'cause it feels just like the end! 

Oh, we're back where we started again. 
Oh, we're back where we started again! 
Oh, we're back where we started again. 

Oh, we're back where we started again and again and again 
and again and again and again and again and again and again."
