Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture JUSTIN Lead Player	#1 by JUSTIN LOCKHART at Feb 3, 1970 at 11:15 AM EST
	just a little correction at the begining "49 hours and 46 minutes to go, but who's counting i just thought i'd let you know i've filled my head with your voice and now im drowning" Anyways, AWSOME SONG! im surprised there aren't any more comments on it. MBR ARE FUCKING FANTASTIC

No Picture randy Professional	#2 by randy taylor at Dec 17, 1977 at 6:07 AM EST
	i think that hes depressed cause she left him (maybe moved or prolly broke up with him) and he wants her back so badly he wonders if he would even give his life for her. and he regrets maybe being a jackass to her by saying "you can hold me down and tell me that your right" and hes scared cus hes doesnt know what its like to be alone idk just my thoughts

No Picture Subhash Average	#3 by Subhash Shady at Nov 25, 1978 at 6:15 PM EST
	"Less than a million nights"- Is it not, "Well i spent a million nights just like tonight, you know." Makes a little bit more sense.

No Picture Anthony Wanna Be	#4 by Anthony Amell at Aug 27, 1982 at 2:10 PM EST
	To me this song seems like it's about this b*tch of a girl and this obsessive guy, they both are wrong, but they both need eachother. Maybe two wrongs do make a right? Or maybe i'm just crazy. ---rock on

No Picture Jacob Lead Player	#5 by Jacob Julian at Aug 23, 1986 at 1:45 AM EST
	It's about a guy getin dumped and the period of waiting for her to return to him and desperation to do any thing for her return. (e.g "Would I give my life for you?") also maybe a apology for him maybe being to proud, (e.g "You can hold me down, /And tell me that you're right.") He will too ne thing for this gal but she's justt sOOoO not Cool ! .. I'll stay for Andrew!! yuM!

No Picture *Lee Average	#6 by Lee at Jun 16, 1987 at 2:01 PM EST
	a couple of my favourite lines; -------- "And we have this down, Unlike everybody." -------- "I scream your name at the sky, Until I lost my voice. Well, I'd give my life for you"

No Picture Sally Average	#7 by Sally Gray at Dec 14, 1987 at 6:41 PM EST
	i think its about a guy who loves girl more then she loves him....and hes thinking about if it would be better if he just gave up on her because she clearly doesnt love him as much as he loves her " tell me what it's like to be alone"

No Picture Bobby Rhythm Player	#8 by Bobby McCorkle at Jun 11, 1989 at 4:41 PM EST
	sounds undecided .. anyhow , beautiful song with great emotion..
