The Watchmaker
Steven Wilson
Track 5 from The Raven That Refused to Sing (and other stories).

The tab is as the version recorded live:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4V4SnFE_8Ms

PLEASE READ: This tab is not 100% complete (there are some parts missing) nor 100% perfect
(there are some mistake due to the tuning of the acoustic guitar and the mix).
I wanted to learn the song and there was no tab online
so I tabbed what I could.

There are 3 guitars in this tab. One of the guitars is on a different tuning and uses a capo:

Gtr 1: Acoustic guitar in Nashville tuning with capo on the third fret.
Gtr 2: Lead Guitar on Standard tuning NO CAPO!!!!. Some flute parts are tabbed for this guitar
Gtr 3: Rhythm guitar on Standard tuning NO CAPO!!!!. Only for the heavy part of the song at the end 


Gtr 1 and Gtr 2 Intro: (00:00 - 00:29)
                                                                E5/D

Fill 1 goes at the end of the second repetition in the intro.
Fill 2 is the last thing before the verse starts.

Section 1: Clean guitar verses

Verse 1: Gtr 1 strums the chords while Gtr 2 picks the notes. Chords here
are referred to Capo for Gtr 1

Dm(sus2)       E7                Am(sus2)
The watchmaker works all day and long into the night
Dm(sus2)         E7          Am(sus2)
He pieces things together despite his failing sight
Dm(sus2)        E7               Am(sus2)
Though all the cogs connect with such poetic grace
F                 E               Asus2
Time has left its curse upon this place
C                         E5/D
Each hour becomes another empty space to fill
F                        E
Wasted with the care and virtues of his skill

Verse 2: As verse one

Dm(sus2)       E7               Am(sus2)
The watchmaker buries something deep within his thoughts
Dm(sus2)         E7           Am(sus2)
A shadow on the staircase of someone from before
Dm(sus2)      E7              Am(sus2)
This thing is broken now and cannot be repaired
F               E             Asus2
Fifty years of compromise and aging bodies shared
C                             E5/D
Eliza dear, you know, there's something I should say
F                                  E
I never really loved you, but I'll miss you anyway

SECTION 2:

Piano begins (No Guitar for a while)

You were just meant to be temporary while I waited for gold
We filled up the years and I found that
I liked having someone to hold
But for you I had to wait
Until one day it was too late

AH!!!!!
TU TU TU!

Gtr 2 enter after the drum section around minute 9:00
after the firts part of the bass solo. The guitar doubles
the bass

Enter vocals and guitar make weird noises with the whammy bar.
Play a G5 and use the whammy bar to get the sound

Vocals enters again, first without guitars, then with the guitars 

Cogs and levers mesh
We are bound in death
Melt the silver down
I'm still inside you


Gtr2 and Gtr 3 enter with power chords following the vocal melody
