ALICE IN CHAINS
(unplugged version)
I'm sending this tab because it's more complete than the one
thats now in the archive, and because i have nothing to do
right now...
This is the unplugged version of the song. It differs from the
album version only during the choruses, and in length. this on
is about three and a half minutes while the album version is
seven minutes long...
Personnaliy, i think it sounds better unplugged...
I'm pretty sure this tab is correct, because I watched and
rewatched how they played it on the unplugged....
It's in a dropped D tuning, 1/2 step lower.
that would be: Low to high, Db Ab Db Bb Eb.
Intro:
not sure about the rhythm

Verse:
just keep on playing the first part of the intro, but not as
hard. Play it smoother... And once in a while (in fact almost
all the time) , strum the D5 chord in a down stroke.
At the end of the verse, it goes like this:
D5

LYRICS
You insult me in my home, you're forgiven this time
Things go well, your eyes dilate, you shake, and i'm high
Look in my eyes deep and watch the clouds change with time
Twenty hours won't print my picture milk carton size
carton size....carton size....carton size
Call me up congratulations ain't the real why
There's no presure besides brilliance, let say by day nine
Endless corporate ignorance lets me control time
By the way, by the way, by the way, by the way
Once again you see an in
Discolored skin gives you away
So afraid, you kindly gurgle
out a date for me
Now the body of one soul o i adore wants to die
You have always told me you'd not live past twenty-five
I say stay long enough to repay all who caused strife.
(chorus)
