Staind
Tab

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

Allright, I searched the whole net for a good tab for that song, but haven´t

found any that´s right. I´m not saying that this is correct, but it is the most

correctest tab on the net. I love that song, and think its the most purest Staind

you can get.

Mike is using a baritone guitar for this song, and i guess that you don´t have one. I

play mine with a half step down, that works as well. Then you´ll have to tune it in DADGBE, so it´s DROP D.

The thoughts from my mind

Command my lips to say I hate you

The thoughts from my mind

Command my hands to cut your silken flesh

The thoughts from my mind

Command my feet to stomp your head

The thoughts from my mind have one question

When will this ever end?

Chorus

Not much to the life I live

Same four walls

I have nothing left to give

Please take it all away

Same four walls

The thoughts from my mind

Feel the pain as rats claw at my flesh

The thoughts from my mind

Feel the joy as the needle hits my vein

The thoughts from my mind

Smell the stench as shit runs down my leg

The thoughts from my mind ask for sanity

Now for this I beg

Chorus (altered 1)

Not much to the life I live

Same four walls

I have nothing left to give

Please take it all away

Same four walls (2x)

My mind

Is like today

Damp, dark, dreary

As the rain falls outside, beating

Going the ground

I can feel it

Slipping away

Dying

Dying, around decay

Dying, like my soul

From the inside out

I can only pray

It won't be long

it won't be long now

It can't be long

It can't be long now

Help me

Where do I go from here?

The thoughts from my mind

Command my lips to say I hate you

The thoughts from my mind

Command my hands to cut your silken flesh

The thoughts from my mind

Command my feet to stomp your head

The thoughts from my mind have one question

When will I be dead?

Chorus (altered 2)

This is the life I have to live

Same four walls

I have nothing left to give

Please take it all away

This is the life I have to live

Same four walls

I have nothing left to give

Please take it all away

Same four walls (4x)

There's nothing left for me....

(gunshot)
