With Riff 1:
No matter where you are
I can still hear you when you drown
You travelled very far
Just to see if I'll come around
When I'm down

All of those yesterdays
Coming down

Yesterday the sky was you
And I still feel the same
Nothing left for me to do
And I still feel the same

Here are some licks from "Drown" which are closer to the CD than those in the
original tab...

- for the "..Was it something someone said.." part, play this:

|------------------------------------------------------------------------
|--10---10---12-12-12--10------------------------------------------------
|--11---11---11-11-11--11-----11----11-11/14-14\11-----------------------
|---9----9----9--9--9---9------------------------------------------------
|---0----0----0---------0------9-----9--9/12-12\-9-----------------------
|---x----x----x---------x------0-----0--0--0--0--0-----------------------

- or something like that anyway.  Also, for the end part of the 2nd solo, play
   this:
|------------------------------------------------------------------------
|------------------------------------------------------------------------
|-------------------------17--17-17-17\16-16-16\14-14-14/16\12--12-------
|------11-12--14-12-11---------------------------------------------------
|--12---------------------15--15-15-15\14-14-14\12-12-12/14\10--10-------
|------------------------------------------------------------------------

-  Billy has used these types of chords in other songs, so he's probably
  using them here too.  Thanks to S.Lee for the original tabs.
