Verse 1:
D5
D G5 F5
Well, I've been convicted with and without reason,
G5 C5 D5
tarred and feathered like a piper on a killing spree, and I felt the anger
D G5 F5 C5 F5
of generations, and been a target of the cheap shots of authority
D5 F5 F#5 G5 F5 F5 D5 F5 F#5 G5 F5
So you think you cut me down to size
F5 D5 F5 F#5 G5 D5
Well there's something you should realize
F5 D5 F5 F#5 G5 F5 C5
It's gonna take more than a break in the law to make me smile pretty for
G5 D5 C5 C5 Bb5 F5
the wreckin' ball. Won't beg, won't bleed. The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
D5 C5 C5 Bb5 F5
Hard line, you'll see. Once you've made a mark, you've made a threat to society,
F5 G5
threat to society
Verse 2:Same as Verse 1

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 SKID ROW 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.
