Subject: Tab: Can't See(Useless) by Oingo Boingo
Song: Can't See (Useless)
Artist: Oingo Boingo
Album: Boingo / Farewell Live Halloween 1995
Written by: Danny Elfman
Tabbed by: boingo692x@mail.telis.org
This tab is a combination of two different guitar parts. There was a third
guitar usually played by Warren Fitzgerald, the other two being Steve
Bartek and Danny Elfman, but it has not been incorporated since it is to
hard to distinguish from all the instruments.
It sounds really good with both a acoustic on one part and an electric on
the other.

We were both cast forth by the same pale hand
and we both moved freely in the shadowland
And we both were sculpted by the same cold wind
and we both had armor that was made from tin

Chorus
And I tried to find you but it's useless and I
Tried to speak but it's useless and I
Felt so bad and I didn't know why and it
Didn't get better as time went by
I was there for you but you turned away and I
Tried to find you but you turned away
And I tried to find you but it's useless and I
Tried to speak but it was useless

And you're so close but I can't see you and you're
Right there but I can't see you and I
Felt so dumb and I don't know what to do you were
right there and I can't see you and I
Realize that it's useless and I
Want to fight but it's useless
And I know you're there but it's useless and you're
Everywhere but it's useless and I
Tried to say it but my tongue got tied and I
Tried to say it but I'm numb inside and I
Can't see you anymore and my
Peace of mind has gone through the door and I
Realize that it's useless and I
Thought I was right but it's useless and I
Know you're there but it's useless and you're
Everywhere but it's useless

And I can't see now in front of my nose and I
Know you're there and I know you're close and you're
Fading away now you disappear and I
Try to focus but I can't see clear and I
Don't know why I feel this way and I
Can't control myself anyway and I
Don't know why I feel this way and I
Can't control myself anyway and I
Feel so bad but it's useless and I
Feel so bad but it's useless and I
Feel so bad but it's useless and I
