Lyrics :
My mother was a witch, she was burned alive
Thankless little bitch for the tears I cried
Take her down now, don't want to see her face
All blistered and burnt, can't hide my disgrace
[Pre-Chorus]
Twenty-seven, ev'ry one was nice
Gotta see 'em, make 'em pay their price
See their bodies out on the ice
Take my time
[Chorus]
Am I evil ?
Yes, I am
Am I evil ?
I am man, Yes, I am
As I watched my mother die, I lost my head
Revenge now I sought to break with my bread
Takin' no chances, you come with me
I'll split you to the bone, help set you free
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
On with the action now, I'll strip your pride
I'll spread your blood around, I'll see you ride
Your face is scarred with steel, wounds deep and neat
Like a double dozen before ya, smells so sweet
[Chorus 2]
Am I evil ?
Yes, I am
Am I evil ?
I am man
I'll take my residence, I'll watch your fire
You can come with me, sweet desire
My face is long forgot, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home
[Chorus 2]
My soul is longing for, await my heir
Sent to avenge my mother, sleep myself
My face is long forgot, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home
[Chorus 2]
Am I evil ?
Yes, I fuckin' am
Am I evil ?
I am man

I feel the same way as titan, whats with all the blocks? just make it simple. That was alot of effort, but im a 6 string guitarist and dont know how to read bass stuff, or it may just be this particular tab. KICK ASS song though. I can play it on 6 string guitar and its not that hard so i guess neither is this. My little bro is learning to play bass so I thought i'd learn it and show it to him. 5 stars tho man, good job. Peace.

THis tab is excellent but it is so blocked up. Did you copy this out of a frikkin tab book or what. You dont need to make them so cluttered up. Especially this one. Dont worry, i still gave you five stars.

Yeah, dude, I agree with titan as well, super cluttered, but it has the best actual tabbing so 5 stars on that one.
