Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Senour Average	#1 by Senour Dakota at Sep 7, 1976 at 5:20 AM EST
	This song makes me think so much about my sister who died a year ago, it seems more about a guy/girl breaking up but whenever I hear it it makes me think about the circumstances of which she died and how it could have been prevented and all of the good times we had. whatever, its the internet. I love and miss you meg.

No Picture the white hendr Badass	#2 by the white hendrix at Nov 12, 1976 at 3:33 PM EST
	wow, pcnate, couldn't have said it better myself...well done

No Picture Fat Man Goz Lead Player	#3 by Fat Man Goz at Feb 24, 1987 at 3:48 AM EST
	dammit, they erased my opinion and comments ....ARRRGHHH But there's a trickle of it in nickelbackchicks post...if I remember correctly, it went something like this: "I can relate wholeheartedly with this tune...it's almost as if the words were being uttered through my own memories...The song itself is so beautiful, so melodic and so meloncholy. Tyler does an excellent job in corresponding his vibrant voice to the lyrics . Amazing tune.

No Picture I fought the la Average	#4 by I fought the law and the law kicked my ass I never learn do i...?? at Apr 16, 1992 at 11:36 PM EST
	i totally agree!! i can't say that i totally relate to this song.. but it is "soo beatiful, sooo melodic, and soo melancholy." theory does such a good job of this song.. tyler is an amazing song writer.. keep it up.. theory's AMAZING!!:):)

No Picture Julian Average	#5 by Julian . at Oct 22, 1994 at 10:22 AM EST
	This song Is about The thoughts of someone who Is about to commit suicide. I read It on their website. The original title of this song was "Theory of A deadman" which Is where they got their name.

No Picture Troy Wanna Be	#6 by Troy Erskine at Dec 28, 1995 at 3:59 PM EST
	i totally love this song. the day this album came out i bought it . i listened to the whole album the way home. actually sat down a listened to it. this song i have been addicted to since. its so sad and so touching. it reminds me...i miss him so much. its him inside this song. tyler is an amazing person and he expresses it through his words.

No Picture _Heretic_ Wanna Be	#7 by _Heretic_ at Jun 3, 2002 at 8:23 AM EST
	This song is about a guy contemplating suicide and then realizing all the things that he is going to miss if he does " I miss my best friends cheap cigars stupid kids and movie starts" That is actually what this song is about.. I seen it in a theory interveiw. But whether or not the guy in this song kills himself is up to the listener

No Picture Sam Average	#8 by Sam Ordway at May 9, 2004 at 11:36 PM EST
	This song reminds me of when you fall in love with someone but you don't have the courage to get to know them and you wait too long "I blame myself for just standing there too long" and then they find someone else to be with. Missing the last song is like missing out on the chance with the greatest girl you know.
