Same riff as in intro through the whole
verse. Then we come to some sort of pre-chorus.
|-----------------------------------------X2

The second guitar comes first in the second verse
and goes like this:
|-------------------------------------------X4
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|

|--9-7-9-----9-10-12--12--10--9---7--9s12---|

|--------------------------------------7--9s11---------|
|--------------------7-9-7---7p9---7-9-----------------|

Then you play the same rutine again. First the
verse, then the pre pre-chorus. Then we come to
the break in the song.

After this, go back to the main riff, then the pre-
chorus riff.
I killed a man 'cause he killed my goat
I put my hands around his throat
He tried to reason with the sky and the clouds
But it didn't matter, 'cause they can't hear a sound
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
It's just the curl of the burl
It's just the curl of the burl
That's just the way of the world
It's just the curl of the burl
Splinters in my skin, just like needles and pins
I cut through the pine, love the feeling it gives
Been out here for days running through these trees
I'm using my hands, cuttin' through the disease
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
It's just the curl of the burl
It's just the curl of the burl
That's just the way of the world
It's just the curl of the burl
I feed the powerless
Chewed it up, spit the rest
I feed the powerless
Chewed it up, spit out the rest
It's just the curl of the burl
It's just the curl of the burl
That's just the way of the world
It's just the curl of the burl
Oh
Oh oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
Oh
Oh oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
