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.
I only see myself reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
And everything I ve hoped to be or ever thought I was
Died with your belief in me, so who the hell am I?
I don t know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don t know what s real without you
How can I exist without you?
I m wandering round confused, wondering why I try
The more that you deny my pain, the more it intensifies
I pray for someone to ache for me the way I ache for you
If you ignore that I m alive, I ve nothing to cling to
I don t know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don t know what s real without you
How can I exist without you?
I stare into this mirror, so tired of this life
If only you would speak to me, or care if I m alive
Once I swore I would die for you, but I never meant it like this
I never meant like this, no I never meant like this
I don t know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don t know what s real without you
How can I exist without you?
How can I exist without you?
How can I exist without you?
Repeat intro. End on the low E.
