Saliva - Famous Monsters (Acoustic) guitar tab
Famous Monsters by Saliva(Acoustic)
Tune:DADGBE
This is my first tab, I'm about 95% sure, but a bit unsure on the chorus,
but playing it with the cd, it sounded 100% to me, but thats just me,
try it and enjoy, any corrections would be appreciated. This song is off
of Saliva's "Back Into Your System" and is I think the best song on the
whole album. I don't have the piano but it sounds just as good with an
acoustic alone, this is my first tab, so go easy on me okay?
I'm not perfect...I get the tab book in a few days so I'll correct it if it's wrong.
Intro:(Spoken) Dear heavenly father please forgive us, for we not know what we do.
Listen to the song for timing, a good backpick riff.

Intro(Spoken)
Dear heavenly father please forgive us, for we not know what we do....
Look at your life, look at the way you slip and slide
Look at your time, look at the ones you've left behind
Look at your eyes, the haunting black circles of your plight
But you can get by, oh and killing you might take one more night
Cause you're a famous monster, you do whatever they offer
You tie their noose around your neck and they throw you over
Cause you're a famous monster...
Look at your mind, look at the strength you never found
You lean on your pride, the only friend that would never let you down
Look at the signs, look at the way they stop and stare
They're watching you die, and when you're gone it's like you're not even there
Cause you're a famous monster, you do whatever they offer
You tie their noose around your neck and they throw you over
Cause you're a famous monster
Famous monster..repeat several times with chorus
