ARTIST/GROUP: Lit
ALBUM:
TRANSCRIBED BY: qualitytabs@qualitytabs.tk
**********************************************************************
CHORDS:

21.04.00 - Just found some major errors in the main riff and the
guitar solo for this song. Fixed it, should be correct now.
Someone requested this song. I don't like it very much myself,
I mean it's not bad, but it's nothing special. I did this in
kind of a hurry so you'll excuse me if there are any mistakes.
I think it's pretty much correct though.
INTRO:
------
[RIFF 1 should actually be played by two guitars, one
playing just the chords, and the other playing just the
single notes, but I've arranged it for one guitar]
RIFF 1:
E5 B5 A5
E|----------------------------------------| h = hammer-on
B|----------------------------------------| / = slide up
G|---8/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--8/9-9-9-9-9-------| \ = slide down
D|---x---x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x---x-x-x-x-9--7--|
A|---6/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--6/7-7-7-7-7-9--7--|
E|----------------------------------7--5--|

VERSE 1:
--------
E5 B5 A5
Can we forget about the things I said when I was drunk?
E5 B5 A5
I didn't mean to call you that
E5 B5 A5
I can't remember what was said or what you threw at me
E5 B5 A5
Please tell me, please tell me
In the chorus a second guitar plays a simple line while
the main guitar plays the chords. It's like this: [play twice]

E5 F#5
Why
A5 B5
my car is in the frontyard, and I'm
E5 F#5

A5 B5
came in through the window, last night
E5 [play RIFF 1 twice (same as intro]
and you're gone, gone
VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]

It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy
'Cause every now and then I kick the living shit out of me
The smoke alarm is going off and there's a cigarette
still burning, please tell me
