Tab Played 1 1/2 step down

Sorry for the mistakes, some parts are a tiny bit off but it'll
give you some quidance... except for the first clean part which
is absolutley not right :) .

5|0 0 0 4 4 3 1 (repeat)
6|2 2 2 6 6 5 3
. .
"turn my life unto you..."
5|0 0 4 4 3 3 1 1 (repeat until end possibly play unmuted chords
twice)
6|2 2 6 6 5 5 3 3
. . . .

Right before Verse (sounds exact when played in drop tuning...)
4| 5 5
5| 7 then after the 7th time... 7
6|0 8

Verse (use down strokes only for better timing purposes):

5|222222222222222222 777666 333333333333333333 777666
10 (x18 like the rest)
6|000000000000000000 555444 111111111111111111 555444 8

I can't believe no one has commented on this, it's one of the best MYDB songs. Any who it's about a woman who uses her beauty to her advantage... but that's only the most obvious part of it...

Ad Nauseam, you're pretty close. The woman he refers to is indeed someone he either loves or admires. It appears that she is a Christian or a member of some other organized religeon as well. Perhaps something happened in his life that made him resent God and all belief in him. He doesn't seem to go into details about it. This woman appears to be trying to convince him to join her religeon, even against his will. Despite a lot what is said, he sounds like he bitterly hates her, yet is still lured to her by her beauty ("A storm of ebony hair/ A hail of wickedness/ Hansome as a god/ The wild and shameless/ Given the prize of beauty/ image of wretchedness"). It's a really sad song. The sudden change of guitar distortion to clean, slow picking really complements how Aaron's vocals affect the atmosphere. Stainthorpe does an incredible job here. He screams in saturated rage, blowing his lungs out over what has been done to him. And just when his wrath reaches a pinnacle, its is as if he simply snaps, and his voice is reduced to a pathetic whimper, completely distraught and overpowered by this woman's influence.
