B|----11^--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------55--3------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------33--1------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

im not that sure on the lead chorus,but it sounds pretty right to me,you
also use the same effect as you do towards the end on it.other than that,im
pretty sure everything is 100% right,if not,its pretty close and you could
easily make the adjustments it needs.

have any question or wanna comment on the tab,e-mail me at njg86@yahoo.com,thanks

I think this songs a homage to their gothic/horror rock roots. It's about Michael Myers (the white masked killler from "Halloween"). ...In the Halloween trilogy Michael Myers always waited silently all year untill one day (Halloween) to rise to his glory and basically assasinate teenagers.

to me it is about someone who has kept quiet and isolated about something for a while and someone (michael) is asking them just to stay quiet but this person wants to rise up because he has been taking everything in and remained non-responsive for so long. that's just stating the obvious though. this is my favorite son of sam song.
