The Carpet Crawlers

Hey, this is my first Tab and one of my fav songs!

The song is basically D and Em on the verses and it, though it can be strumed, 
sounds good when you play it like this.

   D                  Em
e|---3--3--3--3--3--3--------------|    You should listen to the song 
b|----2--2--2--2--2----------------|    and try that against it. Played
g|---------------------0--0--0--0--|  at a paced speed it should work!
d|--0--0--0--0--0--0----2--2--2--2-|    Also use your fingers it helps!
a|--------------------2--2--2--2---|
E|---------------------------------|

The chorus is another story I can't see the finger picking working for a beginner 
but try it on these chords. It works it just sounds strange if not worked on.

F#m 
The carpet crawlers heed their callers 
A                         G         A 
You got to get in to get ou  -  -  -t 
A                         G         Bm 
You got to get in to get ou  -  -  -t 
Bm                 C                D 
You got to get in  to get ou -  -  -t 

    F#m A  G  Bm D
e|---------3--2--2--|
b|--2---2--3--3--3--|
g|--2---2--0--4--2--|
d|--4---2--0--4--0--|
a|--4---0--2--2-----|
E|--2------3--------|

Now here is the bit everyone loves about this song. The Steve Hackett bit when 
it gets to, "You gotta get in to get out". 

Also remember I have figured this out through the live versions but can be put 
in the studio one just as easily. 

e|--15vvvv-15B-13-12-13-15vvvv-15b-13-15-12-10-12-12b-10-8-10/12\10--|
b|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
g|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
d|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
a|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Thank you very much for trying this tab. I doubt there are many with the Steve Hackett 
bit but if you watch the video of Genesis Live zyou'll see how it done. Once again thank you.
