So I'm still pretty surprised no one has come up with a tab for this song considering it
pretty easy. They do play it different ways live if you check out youtube but this is
or less a tab for the album version minus the solo. Just for reference, they are using
chords except during the parts I tabbed at which point they simply use the barre
of the same chord. They also use full chords at the end of the song. Just listen and
pretty easy to figure out. Also,the strumming pattern is just 8 strums per chord or eight
notes in 4/4 time
Standard tuning

Verse 1:
You think she took me for a ride
She held it all way up inside
She held her breath and turned her face all red
That's how they found her in her bed all dead
And this is what i said:
Chorus:
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
M.O. punchline, delivered with a twist
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
Verse 2: play the same as Verse 1
You think she had me in cage
Like a bird on fire, she flew into a rage
Her eyes are permanently crossed
Once you one won her you can swear
she make you feel like you already lost
because:
Chorus
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
M.O. punchline, delivered with a twist
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
Go, Go, Go!
Verse 3: play in the same chord pattern as the other verses but this is picked
Play 4x times

Desperate living so divine
A sugar cube empire could be all mine
She's stuck in gear it's just too bad it's reverse
You say: "I've seen bad" - well I've seen worse
Interlude: Play the same chord progression as you have been doing the whole song but
pick it
Play 4x (note: on the last time, instead of playing the final B chord, just chop strum
whole chord)

See the TV glowing (ahhhh)
(Life is walking you by)
Hear the music flowing (ahhhh)
(Life is walking you by)
See the level tree growing (ahhhh)
(Life is walking you by)
and empty boat starts rowing
that's when you're knowing:
Life is walking you by
Life is walking you by
I could never tell you the truth about her
coz she's so mixed up
I could never tell you the truth about her
coz she's so mixed up
I could never tell you the truth about her
coz she's so mixed up
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
Enjoy!
