This is my first tab and i just started to play guitar last year in 2001.
So if there's any problems relax and please don't be mad, by the way the
song is pretty easy to play and it's fun especially for a beginner like me.
Drop D tuning
D,A,D,G,B,E.
Use heavy distortion through the whole song.
The intro of the song go something like this, strums up and down for the mute part

A--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx--xxxxx---

Then after that you play this.

| I'd have to agree with Akasha..everything points to basically laughing in the faces of those who deem themselves "christians" (and I use the term lightly). Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house.. | |

| I think "It's as anatomic as the size of your steeple" is a reference to Darwinistic superiority, survival of the fittest ect... and how people justify that they are better than other people (richer=bigger steeple) because they we're genetically fit to be better than other people (anatomically). Kind of like saying its okay that people are born in different classes because class and wealth take the place of physical attributes in modern Darwinism (It's sarcasm of course). | |

| This is generally how the "beautiful people" always get it better in life. How may times has a police officer let a really hot woman off the hook, but gives a parking ticket to an ugly person for the same crime? Isn't it always the person who's sucking the bosses c*** that gets the promotion rather than the one that actually works hard? It's all about looks nowadays it's also just on big popularity contest and no one gives a f*ck who actually desrves it. | |

| i agree with you guys but i think the beautiful people also refers to christians. as in how christians (the fundamentalist kinds) are so judgemental, think that they lead good lives etc. anyway the "its all relative to the size of your steeple" made me think that. | |

| It is definetly about beautifull peole getting it easier wether it be christians or mormans. Come on you all remeber the popular group in middle school that you knew no matter how bad they did they would make it anyways because they were the preppy ones who's parents could buy them an education. I think those type of people are what Manson is reffering to but i agree with akash when she says "Meaning in music is what makes it good in the first place. Just "sounding good" will never be enough for me. " Because if you write a song about too many puppies "no offense Primus" and it has no personal meaning then what's the point. I like mansons lyrics because he has a way of relating to anyone that has had an experience with feeling ugly. | |

| This dude is messed up; obviously condoning fascism "The horrible people, the horrible people It's as anatomic as the size of your steeple Capitalism has made it this way, Old-fashioned fascism will take it away" I don't really know if I like that song after I found this out. I always thought Manson was love it or hate it but I'm slowly going from love it to hate it. Lyrics aside, great song. | |

| And one more: I'm not certain here, but I think that the "Hate every motherfucker that is in your way." is just intended to begin the cycle that leads to the climax of Antichrist Superstar (the album is a narrative album, telling a story). His hatred of hypocrisy leads to a hate of most everything, while paradoxically hating nothing. Or something like that. Look at the lyrics to Manson's 1996. Very, very well-written. | |
