Desperate Now by Stabbing Westward
Tabbed by Dave Bloom
mizar_alcor@yahoo.com
This is one of my favorites next to sometimes it hurts.
A beautiful song using basic powerchords.
Standard tuning
E
A
D
G
B
e
To the best of my knowledge in tabbing this song
there are only two chords.
B | G
---|---|--
---|---|--
-4-|-4-|--
-4-|-5-|--
-2-|-5-|--
---|-3-|--
intro... is something like that, keep repeating the B
and the G and playing the notes of those
particular chords. It's also played before
the break and inbetween verses.
---2----3--3--------------
----2---3---3-------------
-4---4--4-----4-----------
-4------5-----------------
-2------5-----------------
--------3-----------------
THE SOLO OR BREAK
----2-------3--------------
-----2--------3------------ REPEAT THAT A FEW TIMES
---4------4---------------- THEN GO INTO THE OTHER PART
--4------5----------------- BELOW
-2------5------------------
-------3-------------------
repeat 4X each then... repeat that a few times
-10-9------------10-9------------12-9-12-12-9-12--
------7---------------8---------------------------

B G
I keep breaking all the promises
B G
That I keep making to myself
B G
You'd think by now i'd be over this
B G
Instead i'm feeling sorry for myself
B G
So why does everything seem desperate now
B G
I should be feeling so alive
B
But it feels like somethings missing
G
Something's wrong somehow
B
It feels like something
G (PALM MUTE)
Deep inside has died
G B
So why do I feel desperate now
G B
Why do I feel like dying
G B
Why do I feel desperate now
G
Why do I feel desperate now
B G
I keep breaking all the promises
B G
That I keep making to myself
B G
But the promises mean nothing to me anymore
B
Circling the drain
G (PALM MUTE)
Spiraling to hell
G B
So why do I feel desperate now
G B
Why do I feel like dying
G B
Why do i feel desperate now
G
Why do i feel desperate now

| I remember once my ex and I were having a fight, and both of us were really sad and upset... she had the stereo on and was listening to this song. I walked into the room, picked her up, and started dancing with her, trying to sing the lyrics. It was kinda pathetic, but it was my way of showing her that I cared and I didn't know where I would have been without her. | |
