Letra da Música A National Acrobat (tablatura) de Black Sabbath

Notation h = hammer on

I've lived a thousand times, I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images, the unborn child that never was conceived.

Verse 2
When little worlds collide I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell
And flashing memories are casting into he never ending well
The name that scorns the face, the child that never sees the cause of man
The deathly darkness that belies the fate of those who never ran

Repeat Riff 4 for the rest of the lyrics and solo

Lyric
You've got to believe me. I'm talking to you
Well I know it's hard for you to know the reason why
And I know you'll understand more when it's time to die
Don't believe the life you have will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on

I want you to listen. I'm trying to get through
Love has given life to you and now it's your concern
Unseen eyes of inner life will make your soul return
Still I look but not to touch, the seeds of life are sown
The curtain of the future falls, the secret stays unknown

Solo

Just remember love is life and hate is living death
Treat your life for what it's worth and live for every breath
Looking back I've lived and learned, but now I'm wondering
Here I wait and only guess what this next life will bring. Ha Ha
