Cabin Fever!
--------------------

This is as far as I can tell mainly bass, I don't hear a lot of guitar.  
But, you can play the power chords or just the low E and it sounds fine.  
The guitar/bass doesn't match up a lot in this song so listen to it and 
put the pieces together where it sounds right.

First main riff:
Low E--2-2-2-2-2-2-2------2-2-2-2-2-2-2- over and over then

Second main riff:
Low E--7-6-5-4   sometimes once sometimes twice

There is a change in the song on "Done is the missing all that 
remains.." and "Tallys up his lonliness..." where the music plays
Low E--2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2--3-3-3-3-3-3----10-10-10-10-10-10

Lyrics: 
Along crags and sunless cracks I go
Up rib of rock, down spine of stone
I dare not slumber where the night winds whistle
Lest her creeping-soul clutch this heart of thistle

O the same God that abandon'd her
Has in turn abandon'd me
And softenin' the turf with with my tears
I dug a Well of Misery

And, in that Well of Misery
Hangs a bucket fulla Sorrow
Which swings slow an' achin' like a bell
Its toll is dead and hollow

Down that well lies the long-lost dress
of my lil floatin girl
That muffles a tear that you let fall
All down that Well of Misery

Put ya shoulder to the handle, if ya dare
and hoist that bucket, hither
O Crank'n'hoist'n'hoist'n'crank
Till ya muscles waste'n'wither

O the same God that abandon'd her
Has in turn abandon'd me
Deep in the Desert of Despair
I wait at the Well of Misery

From Her To Eternity
--------------------

Slide up from A to B and occasionally slide down and back, for the 
course of the song. 

There is a bass riff I can't get down, but the piano riff that goes in 
at odd intervals goes something like this on guitar:

E-10-9-5-2---12-11-7-4---15-14-10-12-14-14-14

In The Ghetto
--------------------

[A] As the snow flies...
On a [C#m7] cold and grey Chicago morning
A [D] poor little baby [E7] child is born in the [A] ghetto
And his [A] mamma cries...
'Cos if [C#m7] there's one thing that she don't need
It is [D] another hungry [E7] mouth to feed in the [A] ghetto

People dont you [E] understand
The child needs a [D] helping [A] hand
[D] he's gonna grow tobe an [E] angry young man some [A]day
Take a look at [E] you and me
Are we too [D] blind to [A] see
Or [D] do we simply [C#m] turn our heads and [Bm] look the other [E7] 
way

Well, the world turns..
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto
And his hunger burns...
So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight in the ghetto

[E] Then one night in desperation the [D] young man breaks [A] away
He [D] buys a gun, he [C#m7] steals a car,
He [Bm] tries to run but he [E7] don't get far

And his mamma cries...
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Face down in the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto
And as her young man dies...
On a cold and grey Chicago morning
[D] Another little baby [E7] child is born in the [A] ghetto...
