Subject: Pannie-waste by the roaches (tab)

Here is my second tab of roach material. Again, fairly simple.

Intro and verse parts:

G...slide to Am...slide to Bm..slide to C(strike this chord with distortion)

----------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------|
----5------------7------------9------10-10-10-10----------------------|
--5------------7------------9--------10-10-10-10----------------------|
3------------5-----------7------------8--8--8--8----------------------|

Do this 3x and then on the fourth time, add distortion to the arpeggios

and break right into this:

C B C A C B C G

----------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------|
10----9--10---7--10--9-10----5----------------------------------------|
10----9--10---7--10--9-10----5----------------------------------------|
-8----7---8---5---8--7--8----3----------------------------------------|

This is the chorus part and it should be played distorted.

This song is easy to play if you keep in 4/4 time. Each chord takes up

half a measure in both parts.

Here's the general idea of the solo, it's not exact.

---------------------6////10------15b-12~---------------------------------|
----------------3-6-3-------11-13--------13-11----------------------------|
-------------------5--------------------------12-10-----------12b---------|
-3--3--------3-5-----------------------------------12-10---------12~------|
-------5~-3-5--------------------------------------------13-10------------|
--3--3--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Lyrics:

1. I am a disease

I do what I please

If you're on your knees

I might not be a tease

C. When I was three

You were learning to pee

When I was four you smelled like a whore

When I was five

Your mommy went and died

When I was six you all had small dicks

2. I'm attached at your head

You thought I was dead

Things left unsaid

As I invade in your bed

3. I drain what's inside

Nothing left to hide

You'd wish you hadn't lied

I wish you hadn't died.

That's it in all it's simplicity.

Hi to mike and tom and curt if you guys ever see this.
