Lyrics
So he's afraid he'll suffer his father's fate
Two sets of silverware, cups and plates
Two burning hands and bleeding hearts
Don't feel it's not too late to start
Only the photographs on your wall
Are chained and down your hall
Reminding you of all the days
When you collected hell to pay
Well hell to pay
I said it's not too late
Not it's not too late
Incessant mace
Oh God I can see it, you know it's incessant mace
Magazine stacks and broken backs
Are what you get for piling stacks
Beneath your treasure chest
You wonder why you're under stress
No it's not too late
Incessant mace
Oh God I can see it, you know it's incessant mace

Solos:
The solos are improvised and relatively easy considering most SG solos. It
takes place mostly on the 12 frets and 9 frets around the E minor pentatonic
scale with maybe a G# or something added here or there.
I don't know most of it but here's a part at the end of one solo:
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
|-7/9-9-9\7/9-9-9\7-etc...-|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
Riff 1 is the intro and verse part and is played at the begining of the
first two verses.
Riff 2 is played during the verses after Riff 1 is played and sometimes
after Riff 3 is played.
Riff 3 is played at the beginning of the third verse.
Riff 4 is played after every solo and played 2 times after the second solo.
Fill 1 is played after Riff 4 the first two times.
The solos are played after each verse for 8 bars each and Chris sings over
the last one.
The bass plays Riff 1 for the verses and 'solos' during the solos.
End on this:

Then quickly pick up a harmonica and play a bar or two and the song is over. :)

Beneath your treasure chest
You wonder why you're under stress
No it's not too late
Incessant mace
Oh God I can see it, you know it's incessant mace
Mace!!!
