my posture?s kinda good from my knees to my feet

(same as before with these verses)

2- And if I cut my hair most people they won't stare
But if people don't stare, who will care, who will care

3- I got me a tatto, it makes me feel so tough
Someone would fight me please God I need to be touched

4- The closest that I get to ever feel your kiss
I get to take a drag off a used cigarette

(silence)

Sometimes I think I'm better off dead
But then if I'm dead, they'll bury my head
If I can't use my lips, can't kiss the air
Why kiss the air?
(Cause it's the air you breathe)

CHORUS

Cause then I would belong to a popular plauge

Here guitar seems to play artificial harmonics all the time(dunno how,
maybe a pedal effect)so I will save the AH. over every note.

END (enjoy it!)

Thanx godness I finished.The solo had some parts quite difficult
for me; moreover the artificial harmonics could hurt your ears cause of
the very high frequencies.I hope you could use this, I know sometimes looks
a bit chaotic but the song is very easy, no rare chords, no 100 notes/second
tapping, just a plain Em chord and a suitable solo. Any suggestion or comment
bout this , email me asc12@alu.um.es or nunozowie@mixmail.com

By the way, if you see this symbol ? it?s supposed to be an
apostrophe but this keyboard hates me.
