"It don't make no difference, escaping one last time" "It's easier to believe" "In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness" "That brings me to my knees." Definetely my own interpretation. Did not really work from Sarah's piano arrangement. Which is awesome.But, apples and oranges. Thought the piece needed a bit more harmonic color when played on guitar. Hope Sarah doesn't mind. "Added Bridge" is my own invention. Disregard if you wish. Pretty though and provides a nice bridge from chorus 1 to verse 2. Melody is stepwise except for 3rd down from Gto E at the end. Frank Metier
