In" "vain to search for order and in" "vain to search for truth, But these" "things can still be given, Your" "love has shown me proof" Notes: 1) Use a light chorus or flanger, if possible. 2) Keep the picking as simple as possible - don't play too many notes! 3) Some of the picking above was arbitrarily chosen since it is difficult to hear every note on the record. 4) The synthesizer is transcribed (at least) one octave lower than on the record. 5) That piercing last synthesizer note can be simulated by playing an artificial harmonic on the 9th fret of the G string, picking directly above the middle pickup (on my guitar anyway). Have fun!
