Email: apr25_1976@yahoo.com
Info & Disclaimers:
1. I'm still learning (only been playing ~3 months), and there are parts that are still
me so far, but I think the main riff is accurate (except it's missing a "turnaround"
the last & first E)
2. I haven't found the lyrics online, and I haven't quite figured out the 3rd line of
2nd verse yet (uncertainty denoted by [square brackets]).
3. Play it slow, and play it loud! Don't just pluck the strings, PLUCK THE STRINGS!
Tuning: Standard
h hammer-on
p pull-off
b bend
s stacato
("Es" above the lyrics = an open E (sixth) string, played stacato;
"G-chord" should be self-explanetory)

Verse 1:
Es G-chord
I could steal the flame, from a candlelight
Es G-chord
Stab a man in the back, while I look in his eyes
Es G-chord
Whisper the words, you like right in your ear
Es
But there's things I'll do, when you're not here
Verse2:
Es G-chord
I will tell you I love you, until the end of time
Es G-chord
Take the money from your pocket, put it into mine
E G-chord
[We] can [trust], don't have any fear
Es
But there's things I'll do, when you're not here
(a lot of E's and G's)
So put your little hand in mine,
Let's walk a while,
I'll make you happy as a buzzing bee
But when the lights go out,
And you're not around,
I'll do the things that you'll never see
Verse 3:
Es G-chord
Some creatures walk, or fly above
Es G-chord
But like a snake in the grass, I'll sneak 'round real low
Es G-chord
You'll never need to shed a tear
Es
The nasty little things are done when you're not here
