The rest is just the main riff
A thorn in my side
and you live just to pull me down
rusted nail I stepped on this infection
A thorn in my side
You're full
I think so
of Anger
You need to sit down
and stay down
these things you want but don't get
Is that fair?
I don't think so
A sure thing that you can count on
a big depression
Your praise is two faced
and you're cut down my friend

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 QUICKSAND 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.
