From: David Wagner (102017.1777@CompuServe.COM) NEW TEST LEPER the verse goes like this: A*:540005 D A G -A* D A G (4x, me thinks) the chorus (im pretty sure about this) goes like this: G A B C D C(3x) G A B C D (that may be wrong - it's from memory) Bridge: Bm A D(4x, me thinks) and end on Em(7?) Lyrics: I can't say that I love Jesus that would be a hollow claim. He did make some observations and I'm quoting them today. "Judge not lest ye be judged." what a beautiful refrain. The studio audience disagrees. Have his lambs all gone astray? Call me a leper Call me a leper Call me a leper "You are lost and disillusioned!" what an awful thing to say. I know this show doesn't matter. It means nothing to me. I thought I might help them understand but what an ugly thing to see. "I am not an animal" subtitled under the screen. Call me a leper Call me a leper Call me a leper When I tried to tell my story They cut me off to take a break. I sat silent 5 commercuials I had nothing left to say The talk show host was index-carded All organized and blank The other guests were scared and hardened What a sad parade. What a sad parade Call me a leper Call me a leper Call me a leper

I'll try and see which is the most accurate. - chr= is) Lyrics Source: From the premiere of the cc-video on MTV (August 14) 1-Look up, what do you see? All of you and all of me Fluorescent and starry Some of them, they surprise The bus ride, I went to write this, 4:00 a.m. This letter Fields of poppies, little pearls All the boys and all the girls sweet-toothed Each and every one a little scary I said your name I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras Dreaming of Maria Callas Whoever she is This fame thing, I don't get it I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves I can take you far This star thing, I don't get it 2-I'll take you over, there I'll take you over, there Aluminum, tastes like fear Adrenaline, it pulls us near I'll take you over It tastes like fear, there I'll take you over Will you live to 83? Will you ever welcome me? Will you show me something that nobody else has seen? Smoke it, drink Here comes the flood Anything to thin the blood These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet Phone, eat it, drink Just another chink Cuts and dents, they catch the light Aluminum, the weakest link I don't want to disappoint you I'm not here to anoint you I would lick your feet But is that sickest move? I wear my own crown and sadness and sorrow And who'd have thought tomorrow could be so strange? My loss, and here we go again (repeat 2) (repeat 1) I can't look it in the eyes Seconal, spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene Cherry-flavored neck and collar I can smell the sorrow on your breath The sweat, the victory and sorrow The smell of fear, I got it (rpt 2, 2...) Pulls us near Tastes like fear..

LEAVE (Last updated: 9/13/96) From: Randy Simmons (s003rws@paladin.wright.edu) This is obviously an electric guitar song. So it is really neat to play if you have an amp with good overdrive. It sounds better if you have a guitar with a pickup selector switch like a Rickenbacker or a Les Paul, but that is just for more flair and perfection. Cool trick: If you have a fairly good CD player, hit the pause button (which should put the player in standby/play mode) then go to track 6. Now you should have an INDEX button on your remote, hit Index to number 2 (usually it is a smaller number on the digital display right next to the track number). The CD will automatically skip over the 1:01 min interlude/intro on the acoustic guitar and right to the actual "beginning" of the song!!! Pretty cool!! I assume this was done to accomodate Radio DJ's who want not such a long song... Now go check all of your other CDs to see who else did this!! Amp Setting: MEDIUM OVERDRIVE, MEDIUM GAIN, MEDIUM REVERB, MEDIUM CHORUS * CAPO ON 1st FRET TO PLAY WITH THE ALBUM!!! Guitar Riff: (put pickup selector switch in middle position) s =3D slide to.. h =3D hammer on.. p =3D pick off to.. e --------------------------------------- B ------------------------ 7 s 9 -- 6 --- G -- 2 s 3 -- 3 s 5 -- 6 ---------------- D --------------------------------------- A --------------------------------------- E --------------------------------------- e ------------------------------------------------ B ------------------------- 7 s 9 -- 6 h 7 p 6 --- G -- 2 s 3 -- 3 s 5 -- 6 ------------------------- D ------------------------------------------------ A ------------------------------------------------ E ------------------------------------------------ Verses: (this is a sort of muffled overdrive so put pickup selector switch in BASS/RHYTHM pickup pos.) strum each chord only once and let ring Am 012200 F 112331 REMEMBER!! CAPO ON 1st FRET !!!! G 330023 C 010230 F* 000330 Am F Nothing could bring me closer. G G Am Nothing could bring me near. Am F Where is the road I follow G G Am Leaving, leave Am F It's Under, under, under my feet G G Am The sea spread out there before me. G Am F Better I go, and the land touches sea. G G Am There is _________ in what I believe. Chorus: (this really stands out so put pickup selector switch in MIDDLE position) listen to the album to get the strum pattern down! C That's what keeps me, Am That's what keeps me, C G That's what keeps me down. C Am G To leave it, to leave it, F F* F Leave it all behind. The following verses and choruses are played the same sometimes with the Guitar riff and the chords, sometimes just chords. If you have two guitars (and two people) play both!! Shifting the dream Nothing could bring me further from rougher tide. We're shifting the dream. It's charging the sea. I know where I marked the signs. Suffer dreams of a world gone mad I like it like that and I know it. I know him well, ugly and sweet A temper madness who believed in extreme. That's what keeps me That's what keeps me That's what keeps me down I say they aren't gonna like me I say they don't know thier plane Never left the ground. (Chorus) x 1 Lift me, lift me, I'll attain my dream. I lost myself, I lost the, Heartache calling me. I lost myself in sorrow. I lost myself in pain. I lost myself in gravity. Memory, leave, leave, leave. (Chorus) x 2 In my hands my eyes are still I walk into the sea Shoot myself in a different place And leave it. Wait for this to take me, It longed for my release. Waited for the calling, To leave, leave Leave, leave, leave, leave Leavin', Leavin' ----- From: "Jacob J.
