Smoke And Mirrors

	  		great song on a great cd.  It is in dropped D tuning (DADGBE)

the main verse riff is pretty easy: (spacing of notes not indicative of speed in song)

VERSE
"I've been sneaking glances..."

E----------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------|
G---4---2--------------------------------|
D--4-4-4-4--7---4------------------------|
A-2---5----5-5-4-0-----------------------|
D---------5---4--------------------------|

this is done 2x for the intro, 8 times for the first verse.

BRIDGE
just palm muted chords

"More than you thought..."

E-x-x-x
B-x-x-x  x2
G-7-9-4-|
D-5-7-2-|
A-5-7-2-|
D-5-7-2-|

each holds for about 8 downstrokes, and is repeated twice for the bridge.

CHORUS

"I'm on the search, 2 floors high..."

E-x-x--x-x--x-x--x-x-----------|
B-x-x--x-x--x-x--x-x-----------|
G-4-4--7-7--9-9--4-4-----------|
D-4-4--5-5--7-7--2-2-----------|          x4
A-2-2--5-5--7-7--2-2-----------|
D-x-x--5-5--7-7--2-2-----------|

after the chorus they do the verse riff twice and then go into a palm mute type movement 
the same chords where each is done twice with an open hand stroke on the third (listen 
song to figure out).

PRECHORUS x2

CHORUS x4

BREAKDOWN x4
same chords as prechorus
"And I thought that I could make it.."

CHORUS x8

the x4, x8 means the chord progression is done a total of 4 or 8 times (roughly, didn't 
exact number).
That's it.
