Look through the haze
I begin to walk
Through the maze
Here they come
They're all up on me
And I'm dead to sin Like some kind of zombie

OK, here is how the first bit goes together:

Intro/Rhy. Fig 1

Rhy. Fig. 2 x2 (= Part A x2, Part B x2, A x2, B x2)
Except do it w/o words until chorus- (you'll see)

F# (once and fermata)

Verse 1
--------
C G
I must have been confused or vain
F G C
to let this evil in my brain
C G
Lord, did I enjoy the change
F G A
that you made inside my heart

Pre-Chorus
----------
F G A F G A
Oh, here they come but I'm not afraid
F G A F G A
there's no temptation I can't evade

Chorus
----------
See Rhythm Fig. 2!!!

You should play the part above the words as you
say them
This is the order:
"Stand up straight Look through the haze
I begin to walk Through the maze Here they come
They're all up on me And I'm dead to sin like
Some kind of zombie"

Chorus Part II
---------------
G G# A
I hear you speak and I obey (Some kind of zombie)
G G# A
I walked away from the grave (Some kind of zombie)
G G# A
I will never be afraid (Some kind of zombie)
F E A
I gave my life away

Verse 2
--------
C G F G A
I'm obliged and obey I'm enslaved to what you say

Solo
-------
(only uses 1st and 2nd strings)
The 2nd guitar plays some other chords in here...
I didn't include them for this arrangement.

E---12-10----10----12-10---------12-10----10--13-15-----
B---------13-------------13-10---------13---------------

E---12-10----10----12-10---------12-10----10--15-17----
