When I first played this song, I played it one octave lower, it felt 
better that way, but as I started to tab it seriously, I discovered that
it was played one octave higher. Actually, I was a little dissapointed, 
it had been such a great aucoustic song! But no, you HAD to play up in 
the high pitched areas, hmm... Well, I'll just stop coplaining;

Here's Blood Tears!

  Cut off your old friends hand

There's actually aocoustic in the chorus to, if you havn't noticed
