Bass only: I wrote her off for the 10th time today
I practiced hard all the things I would
say
When she came over, I lost my nerve
I took her back and made her
desssert

(Heavy palm mute)^ I know I`m being used
CONTINUE SAME PATERN FOR THREE MORE LINES OF PRE-CHORUS:
But that`s okay because I like the abuse...
I know she`s playing with me
But that`s okay `cause I got no self-esteem...........
RHYTHM FIGURE 2 4X
Ohyeah........Yeah.........Oh........Yeah.......etc.
(Bass only here)
We make plans go out at night
Wait till 2 then I Turn out the light (START RHYTHm FIG. 1 here, play 2X)
This rejection`s got me so low....
She keeps it up I just might tell here so...
(START RHTYM FIG. 2 HERE PLAY 4X)

When she`s saying.......ah that she wants only me.
CONTINUE RHYTYM PART 3
6X
Well I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she`s saying..ah... that I`m like a diease
well I wonder how much more I can stand
Well I guess I should stand up for myself
But I really think it`s better this way
The more you suffer...the more it shows you really care...
PLAY RHYTHM FIG. 1A one time
Right?.....Yeah,yeah...
BASS PART AGAIN, FOLLOWED BY
RHYTHM FILL 1 THEN
I`ll relate this little bit
It happens more than I`d like to admit
Latye at night, she knocks on my door
She`s drunk again and lookin` to score
PLAY RTHYM FILL 1
THEN RHYTHM FIG. 2 4X
I know I should say no..
But`s it`s kinda hard when she`s ready to go
I may be dumb, but I`m not a dweeb
I`m just a sucker with no self-esteem
THEN PLAY RTHYM FIG.1 4X
yeah...oh,......yeah....oh...yeahyeah
Play Rhtym Figure 3 7X
When she`s saying
that she wants only me
Well I wonder why she sleeps with my firends
When she`s saying
Ah, that I`m like a diesase
Well I wonder how much more I can stand
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think It`s better this way
the more you suffer, the more you really care...
PLAY RYHTYM Fig. 1 1X
Right? Yeah, yeah

U.S.
I`m working on a few others to send up, like Genocide and It`ll Be a Long
Time. When I get `em seperated (I mean figured out) I`ll send `em up.
Any comments about screw-ups, how lame I am with tab, or just general flames
about how I wouldn`t know the correct chord if it hit me in the head with a
2X4 and buried me in a shallow grave can be directed to MEGGABILL@aol.com
Thanks again, and don`t get too mad if I screwed up. Remember, it`s not like
you paid for this or anything!
Drivers are rude
Such attitudes
But when I show my piece
Complaints cease
