PLACEBO - "36 Degrees" Tablature
Official PLACEBO Tablature & Sheet Music »

Song: 36 degrees
By: Placebo
Album: Placebo
One of the best Placebo songs (in my opinion), I don't remember if it was the 3th or 4th. single
from their debut album. There are 2 guitars on the song, when Placebo plays it live, Brian plays
/Guitar2/ while Stefan plays /Guitar1/, a bass player (Bill) plays on the side of the stage.

"We were tight, but it falls apart as silver turns to blue.
Waxing with a candlelight, and burning just for you.
Allocate your sentiment, and stick it in a box.
I've never been an extrovert, but i'm still breathing"
/Guitar2/

"With hindsight, I was more than blind, lost without a clue.
Thought I was getting carat gold, and what I got was you.
Stuck inside the circumstances, lonely at the top.
I've always been an introvert
happily bleeding."

thats it, enjoy...
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 PLACEBO 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.
