Lines In The Sand


Author - Eric Schlelein


LINES IN THE SAND--DREAM THEATER
from 1997's "Falling Into Infinity" album
Eastwest Records America
Lyrics by John Petrucci/Music by Dream Theater

Transcribed by Eric Schlelein

This is most of "Lines in the Sand."  It's not perfect, and it's not
all the way complete, but it's here, and it's okay.

Side note that no one will care about, but I feel I must tell the 
most people I can, I actually got to meet Mr. Petrucci, along with
Mr. LaBrie, Mr. Sherinian, and Mr. Portnoy at the recent (5/20/98) 
concert in Tempe, Arizona.  What a treat.  They were probably the 
most engaging bunch of rock stars I'll ever hope to meet, which is 
just fine because they could just about be the be all end all of 
progressive metal, in my book.

Can't wait for the new album, guys, if you happen to read this.

(w/vocals)

	Sometimes, for a moment of bliss, 

	And the passion we're craving, 

	There's a message we miss.



	Sometimes when, the spirit's left alone,

	We must believe in something.

	To find it we've grown.
