Wasp

Wasp - Idol guitar tab

The Idol: WASP

This is a great song, the acoustic version is hot and so is the live version on double live assassins.

The other version on here says stick a capo on the first fret? personally I prefer the tab below.

This is a great to play in band; I just go off on it.

Lyrics for second part of intro:

Will I be alone this morning? Will I need my friends?

Something just to ease away the pain

No one ever sees the loneliness behind my face

I am just a prisoner to my fame

Verse 1: *play Em in the open position*

Em Dsus2

If I could only stand and stare in the mirror would I see

Am Dsus2 Em

One fallen hero with a face like me?

Em Dsus2

And if I scream, could anybody hear me?

Am Dsus2 Em

If I smash the silence you'll see what fame has done to me

Pre chorus:

C5 D5 E5

Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely

I'll never know if loves a lie... oh being?

Crazy in paradise is easy

C5 D5 C5 Am

Do you see the prisoners in my eyes?

Chorus:

Em D5

Where's the love, to shelter me

C5 D5

Give me love, love sets me free

*Play the above twice.. then*

Am

Set me free

Solo:

This is what guitar two plays during the solo, guitar one plays a lead using the E minor pentatonic.. so just mess around with it until you find something you like.
