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.
Tuning: DADGBE

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)
