STABBING WESTWARD - SHAME
Transcribed by ironcladlou
Intro is alternating octaves on an E chord. I play in Drop-D, so the tab would be
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|
A|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|
D|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|
Your mileage may vary.
E D
I only see myself reflected in your eyes
E D
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
E D
And everything I've hoped to be or ever thought I was
E D
Died with your belief in me, so who the hell am I?
E C
I don't know if I am real without you
A D
What is left of me without you?
E C
I don't know what's real without you
A D E
How can I exist without you?
E D
I'm wandering 'round confused, wondering why I try
E D
The more that you deny my pain, the more it intensifies
E D
I pray for someone to ache for me the way I ache for you
E D
If you ignore that I'm alive, I've nothing to cling to
E C
I don't know if I am real without you
A D
What is left of me without you?
E C
I don't know what's real without you
A D E
How can I exist without you?
E D
I stare into this mirror, so tired of this life
E D
If only you would speak to me, or care if I'm alive
E D
Once I swore I would die for you, but I never meant it like this
E D
I never meant like this, no I never meant like this
E C
I don't know if I am real without you
A D
What is left of me without you?
E C
I don't know what's real without you
A D E
How can I exist without you?
C A D E
How can I exist without you?
E
How can I exist without you?
Repeat intro. End on the low E.
