Already Dead - Beck
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: F# 11th w3

Tuning: Standard, capo on 3rd fret


This song is played on 2 guitars. This tab is my interpretation on how to play 
it on one guitar. Throughout the song, let ring where possible. When I refer 
to a 'measure' I mean a part between the vertical lines: |------------|.

All the treasures... you could hold

Verse 2:

Days turn to sand
Losing strength in every hand
They can't hold you... anymore

(Same as Verse 1.)


Chorus:

Part 1 (lyrics):

Already dead to me now
Already dead to me now
'Coz it feels like I'm watching something dying

Part 2 (instrumental):

Verse 3:

Love looks away
In the harsh light of the day
On the edge of... nothing more

(Same as Verse 1.)


Verse 4:

Days fade to black
In the light of what they lack
Nothing's measured... by what it needs

(Almost the same as verse 1, only the 2nd measure is different and the last 
one.)

different and the last one. Part 2 is exactly identical.)
