Helsinki by Chris Shiflett & the Dead Peasants

Tabbed by:LesThanPaul
The first track from Chris Shiflett's side project. It's a pretty
easy song once you get the progression down. Have fun and enjoy!
UPDATE 4/13: I noticed some of the verse chords were a little
misplaced(probably formatting when I switched from word) so I
fixed that and added a solo which I recently finished
**special notes**
In the chorus parts that look like a jumbled mess of chords, it is just
the intro progression played beneath the words. I tried to line it up as
best I could, but it was a bit tricky.
Also, on most (maybe all) of the D chords in the song, he fools around with
the sus4. I'll leave that up to you whether you want to add them or not.

intro: x2
I can't wait to get there, and see what was left there of you
pick through the pieces, I can't resist it
set from the get-go, knew it was over before
we hit that first chord, all out of tune
so what did ya think was gonna happen
you were just the ghost of a bad habit
where is the blood, where is the passion?
I got lost on a bad reaction to you
point dirty fingers, it's everybody's fault when
history lingers, history leaves little doubt
but gives me a treason, but I gave you the truth
you gave me reasons, a pitiful excuse
so what did ya think was gonna happen
you were just the ghost of a bad habit
where is the blood, where is the passion?
I got lost on a bad reaction to you
oh that's it
do you remember the reasons?
where's the passion?
where is the fire?
