A most perfect song to end the album.. I love how the first
and last verse repeat to slow and then hardcore music... very
nice...I'm gonna do my best to try to make you understand the
tab, it might be difficult, this song has lots of different
parts, if any questions just send me a letter...
Drop D Tuning
D
A
D
G
B
e
This is the main riff, it starts almost half way through the
song, and is played at many different parts. I'll call this riff
"D"
Repeat that a few times then play... to end the riff

This little riff, is heard about three times through the song
I think you should be able to figure out when to play this...

lyrics...
I've been so alone for so long
Forgotten by the world
Forgotten to myself
Your effervescent eyes have awakened me
And brushed the dust away
But I knew you'd never stay
So I memorized the colors of your eyes
As I lost myself inside you
And I memorized the way our legs entwined
As I drifted off beside you
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you...
At night I cling to you im so afraid
Afraid the day will come
And I'll wake and find you gone
But you promise that you'd not abandon me
And then kissed my fears away
But I woke up to that day
But I had memorized the way our eyes would meet
Reflected in the bathroom mirror
And I memorized your naked sihouette
As you slowly brushed you hair down
F
I miss
G
God I miss
D
Waking up beside you
I've been alone for so long
I forgot how much it hurts
To wake up so alone
But I'd memorize how warm your body felt
As you lay half asleep beside me
And I memorized the way the sunlight filled the room
And placed upon your body
F
I miss
G
God I miss
D
Waking up beside you
F
I miss
G
God I miss
D
Waking up beside you
Thats it...
let me know your opinions...

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.
