I've only seen one tab for this song other than this one.
Although it had the gist of things, some of the riffs were
a little off and a few things were missing. Everything you'll
need is covered here. Props to John Saunders for help.

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
You've left me with nothing left but questions.
You left me here not knowing who I am.
You left me so much fucking time to hate you.
You left me with no choice but to die.
Chorus 1:
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Verse 2:
Your voice whispers nearly all the time now.
Reminding me just how worthless I am.
Sometimes I just feel you laugh forever.
I want you the fuck out of my head.
Chorus 2:
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Verse 3:
You're inside my pain, inside my sorrow.
I'd die for one last moment inside you.
I miss you so fucking bad I am you.
So whose God will fucking save me now?
Chorus 3:
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Violent mood swings. (3x)
Violent mood swings. (3x)
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 STABBING WESTWARD 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.
