I've seen one tab for this song...and it's quite wrong,
so I'm gonna do this right.
Main riff:
e|-------1p0------------------|
B|--3-3------3-1--------------|
G|--2--2---------2---0--------|
D|--0--------------3---2---0--|
A|-----------------------3----|
E|----------------------------|
Riff x2
I need your confidence, need to know your mine
When it gets right down to the killing time
I know your heart is bad, but it's all I've ever had
We can live our lives on this righteous crime
(Play a freestyle version of the main riff:)
I got kicked when I was down and a sailor took my girl to town
then she licked my wounds with the sea dog's salt
I drank a half a bottle of jack, swore I'd never take you back
by the bottle's end I was on that phone.
What you call compromise I don't understand
What you call compromise---I don't understand
How do you walk away?
How do you walk away?
Oh walk away from a woman that gone and done you wrong?
Solo:
For the first part of the solo, use this scale
[E] --------------------------10-13-|
[B] ---------------------10-13------|
[G] ----------------10-12-----------|
[D] -----------10-12----------------|
[A] ------10-12---------------------|
[E] -10-13--------------------------|
The second half is basically riff 2 with a few frills.
