I think there is also a distored guitar playing the rhythm
chords low in the mix. Just play the chords above the tablature.

Verse 1:
------------------------------------------
now let me tell you a story about my youth
when i was a boy scout
ringing the bell at a mature lady's door
known to be generous
it was love at first sight, her eyes were shining so bright
she smiled at me and asked: "what's your cause?"
i'm collecting dough, for the sunday show

Verse 2:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
i will never forget, the pretty babe i met
when i was at high school
i was carrying her books every day after class
we were always together
the moment had come, for me to meet her mom
she smiled at me and asked: "what's your name?"
i could see it was her, it all began to blur
(Play chorus)
Solo (2 gtrs. arr. for 1):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There seems to be a second guiat low in the mix (in addition to
the rhythm guitar), so I've made the best facsimilie of the solo.

Verse 3:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
we all lived together for a long, long time
me, my babe and her mother
they left the house one day, i never saw them again
don't know the reason
rumours say that aliens took them away
i look into the sky and think: "did they die?"
i can always hope, though i'll never know
(Play chorus)
For the outro, just noodle around with the intro / verse chords
(F, Dmi, A, Bb, C)
GWC fuckin rock (but you knew that.)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official GODLESS WICKED CREEPS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
