as I am concerned and I thought I might as well give it a shot because it is easy as shit
to play. comments? email at skatesa207@hotmail.com, and no I don't want to see you naked,
so don't send pics.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh Bad a ba ba ba ba ba I'm alive.
A#5 D5 D#5

C5 A#5 D5 D#5
only love wake up, wake up nothing could be worse, oh yea i'll give you
C5 D5
my only love oh no
Here I guess is the guitar solo, its still just a bunch of power chords,
nothing to get too excited about
A5 C#5 G#5 F#5 A5 Repeat
This part I cant here the guitar in the background, the vocals and bass overcome guitar,
so here is my best guess. This is all on the g string, haha, g string, I just got that.
7-7-7-7/9-9-9-9/10-10/12-12/1412/14 D5 A5
Aaaaaahhhh ohh Bad a ba ba ba ba ba I'm alive
Ok repeat the chorus 2 times and that guitar solo thing and your done. There is a LITTLE
part where some guitar is wailing on the high e string, and this is how it ends. 10~-9~-5~.
Don't forget to email me to tell me how awesome this tab was.

| The Satah: I think that's the demo version of the song, and the chorus goes something like this: Well, the people, they gawk They're watching us walk I'll give you my only love That's them on the block Oh, we're the talk I'll give you my only love. | |

| I definitely have a different version of this song. n_n; It doesn't say the "Wake up, wake up/This is heaven on Earth" bit... The chorus is like... Well, the people, they come They're watching the spot I'll give you my only love That's never a flaw Oh, with the talk I'll give you my only love I can never find the real lyrics and he's singing kind of slurred, but... yeah... xD No clue. I'd say that it's about drugs, too. I love the "D-R-U-G- leave no-one alive/I'm alive" part. It definitely says to me that this person once did drugs and quit them... The constant "I'm alive" kind of seems like he's shocked about this. Maybe he had a near-death experience with drugs like an OD or something, but he survived? | |

| "my monkey on ice" Ice is slang for crystal meth. I think thats what this song is about. its about the buzz you get off meth and the come down afterwards. also "we're ageing with time" a regular meth user looks around 30 years older than they are. :] x 1 | |

| i love this song. it completely summarizes the way some drugs are - the best thing ever but so horrible. it's like the song right before a comedown. this high is the best, but it's the worst because the drugs just keep digging a hole. the high makes you feel alive, but alive in the most painful, raw way. | |

| its a song about staying away from drugs.''D-R-U-G-S leave no one alive I'm alive'' it means that while everyone is off doin drugs,feelin like crap he's busy enjoying life ,instead of drugs, and not feeling like a drugged out loser. | |

| It's about drugs, but not necessarily against them. It also says "This is heaven on earth" They have a lot of fun on drugs, but the comedown makes up for it. | |
