Tabbed by me! (Edgar L. Wotring, all-around swell guy)
Just in case you didn't know, this is a really cool song. This is my
first time tabbing a song, so please send corrections/additions to
"ewotring@shirenet.com" And, if anyone has the lyrics to this song
PLEASE send them to me and/or e-mail me with information about where to
find them.
Tourniquet plays the song tuned down to C#, but I prefer drop-D.

the "a"/"b" progression 4x.
gets kinda tricky, because I'm not COMPLETELY sure whether the lead and
rhythm guitars play different stuff. I believe only one guitar plays
this little number 2x.

"riff@b" 4x along w/ "little riffa". then, "riff's $a and $b" combo 4x.
after that, play "little riffb".
WOW! Still with me? I didn't even try to figure out the lead, but
during the lead, I think the rhythm only plays a cheesy little riff...

let sound for
a few seconds
then end it w/ a quickly silenced low D5.
Like I said this tab is kinda sketchy. However, its darn close to the
way Tourniquet played it on the "Intense Live Series 4" album. Close
enough to sound LIKE their version of the song. Questions, comments,
mindless chatter? E-mail me. TOURNIQUET RULES!!!!!
