Well, someone requested some GWAR, so I thought that since I had a few minutes,
I'd post this song (since it's pretty easy). I make no statement about its
accuracy, except to say that it sounds good enough to me. 8)
Well, first off, GWAR tunes their instruments 1/2 step, so that's what you
gotta do to sound right.
Here's the first riff
F#
pm..] pm..]
|-------0---------------2---------| play this a couple times
|-------0---0-----------2---2-----|
|-------------3---------------3---|
|---------------------------------|
|-4-4-4----------4-4-4------------|
|-2-2-2----------2-2-2------------|
Then the rhythm guitar (Balsac) plays palm-muted F#5 chords (power chord on the
2nd fret of low E string, that is) while the lead guitar (Flattus) plays:
|--2--2--------------------------| He plays this (or slight variations
|--------2--5--2-----------------| thereof) a few times.
|--------------------4--4--2-----|
|-----------------------------4--|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
The verses are just palm-muted F#5 chords. The chorus goes like this:
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|-------6----7-6-4-2------------6---6---4---6--6---|
|--4----4----5-4-2-0----4---4---4---4---2---4--4---|
|--2--------------------2---2----------------------|
Sick of yoooooou I'm so sick so sick of you
I think thats all, except for the break-down ("I said break it down!....) and
all that is is a little non-disorted variation of the lead guitar part above.
(I think).
Well, I think thats all... let me know if I missed a major part of the song...
Later,
Stephen

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 GWAR 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.
