[Mustaine] Hello me ... Meet the real me And my misfits way of life A dark black past is my Most valued possessions Hindsight is always 20-20 But looking back it's still a bit fuzzy Speak of mutually assured destruction? Nice story ... Tell it to Reader's Digest !!! Feeling paranoid True enemy or false friend? Anxiety's attacking me, and My air is getting thin I'm in trouble for the things I haven't got to yet I'm chomping at the bit and my Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets [Solo : Dave] Hello me ... It's me again You can subdue, but never tame me It gives me a migraine headache Thinking down to your level Yea, just keep on thinking it's my fault And stay an inch or two outta kicking distance Mankind has got to know His limitations Feeling claustrophobic Like the walls are closing in Blood stains on my hands and I don't know where I've been I'm in trouble for the things I haven't got to yet I'm sharpening the axe, and my Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets Well, me ... It's nice talking to myself A credit to dementia Some day you too will know my pain And smile its blacktooth grin If the war inside my head Won't take a day off I'll be dead My icy fingers claw your back Here I come again Feeling paranoid True enemy or false friend? Anxiety's attacking me, and And my air is getting thin Feeling claustrophobic Like the walls are closing in Blood stains on my hands and I don't know where I've been Once you committed me Now you've acquited me Claiming validity For your stupidity I'm chomping at the bit I'm sharpening the axe Here I come again, whoa! Sweating bullets

Dead ace....your a beginner right? Ok i wont be hard on you but duh!!!...to play a note in a solo that has 24th fret mark.Just bend the 22nd fret.Shoulda known. And yes darth sounds weird its wrong im pretty sure. Andrew zara you suck.I absolutly despise you after finding you copied and pasted a few songs on your metallica album tab.You majorly suck.And most of them werent even right.Just like this is absolutly weird. Leave your guitar alone and go find your self a boyfriend.Later -St angarrr

and yes ive tried the whole solo and to me it seem 99.9 percent accurate...only left out .1 percent from it because if im wrong thats what ill fall back on =))
