I know theres alot of tabs for this song out there, but i never seen one like this tab.
This is how i play this song and it sounds just about 96% correct. This song is one of my all time
favorites, its fun and eazy to play so give it a try. this song is totally laid out for u. unlike
all the other ive seen. well enough talk. Start playin!

throughout the whole song strum gently

  ..pm.. = palm mute (when u mute 4 this song, mute lightly)

when you stike the second to last cord, slide quickly to the
next cord and sustain it!

Well thats about it, i guess heres some lyrics to help you out a bit.

Morningstar

I saw a star beneath the stairs,glowing through the melting walls.
Who will be the first,to begin their fall? Or will we become one? 
Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I a ghost upon the stage? 
Am I your anything? 
I saw a star beneath the stairs,glowing bright before descent,
and in the morning there is nothing left,but what's inside of me. 
Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I a ghost upon the stage? 
Am I your anything? 
Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I a ghost upon the stage? 
Am I your anything? 
And I don't, want to, die tonight,will you believe in me? 
And I don't, want to, fall into the light. 
Will you wish upon? 
Will you walk upon me? 
I don't want to die tonight.. 
Will you believe in me tonight. 
Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I a ghost upon the stage? 
Am I your anything? 
Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I a ghost upon the stage? 
Am I your anything? 

This ones for you Alexandra.
