Lyrics by Martina Axen

I know you'll all hate me for saying this, but this is my first attempt at a tab, so don't be
surprised if some of it is wrong. I don't know the whole song, but the parts I do know make up
most of it anyway, so here goes.

Riff 1 (acoustic):x6
e|-0--0--0/3--3-3-3-3/5--5-5-5-5/-8--8--8--8\7-7\--|
B|-0--0--0/3--3-3-3-3/5--5-5-5-5/-8--8--8--8\7-7\--|
G|-2--2--2/5--5-5-5-5/7--7-7-7-7/10-10-10-10\9-9\--|
D|-2--2--2/5--5-5-5-5/7--7-7-7-7/10-10-10-10\9-9\--|
A|-0--0--0/3--3-3-3-3/5--5-5-5-5/-8--8--8--8\7-7\--|
E|-------------------------------------------------|
The strumming pattern and all that aren't shown. Listen to the CD to get
the right rhythm.

Riff 1a (electric):x4
e|-------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------|
D|-2--2--2/5--5-5-5-5/7--7-7-7-7/10-10-10-10\9-9\--|
A|-0--0--0/3--3-3-3-3/5--5-5-5-5/-8--8--8--8\7-7\--|
E|-------------------------------------------------|
Play the acoustic part twice, then come in with the electric four times.
The acoustic keeps
playing until the singing starts.

Verse 1:
Am I too corrosive?
Am I just too weak?
Am I too contagious?
Am I just a freak?

Chorus:
I wish that I could hold you
I wish that I could hate you
I wish that I could hold you one more time
Just one more time

Verse 2:
Am I what you made me?
Am I what you'll reap?
Am I all you dreamed of?
Or am I just a creep?

Chorus

Bridge:
I still see you in my mind
I wish that I could have more time
I know that it will be just fine
All is well now, no need to cry
No need to cry...

Chorus

Intro x10
Verse 1 (no guitar)
Chorus x6
Verse 2 (no guitar)
Chorus x4
Bridge
Solo x4
Chorus x8
Outro x2

The intro is shown above. For the chorus play riff 1 and riff 1a. For the bridge, it sounds like
riff 1a is played, but it also sounds like there are two acoustics. One playing chords, the other
finger picking. Play riff 1a under the solo, and for the outro, play riff 1.

If anyone knows any Drain S.T.H. songs, let me know.
