This is my best effort at tabbing out this song.
This is also the first tab I ever do, so if there are mistakes, please
feel free to correct it.

This is the opening bass riff, I like playing it on guitar.
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

G--------6-7h-6---6-7h-6-------------7-6-----------------------------------|
D--7-7-7-----------------7slide to-4---------------------------------------|

Otherwise, you'd play this while bass plays the riff.
Listen for rythm
D-----------|
A------7--0-|(let ring)
E-----------|
Riff 4x
At end of 4th hit A-----5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-listen for rythm
then (A) power chord
alternate (C#) power chord back to (A)
then end on (D) power chord
Been staring for a hundred hours.
Run down a spiral drain.
Keep mouth clamped tight, and it isn't right.
Three words keep running 'round my mind,
But my tongue is hard to find.
I need to let it go, because I know.
Dark secrets burn their vessel.
Tearing out to grab a mouthful.
Chunk of heart destroyed by quiet.
Yell it out before it kills you now.
Let it all out.
(continues the same, listen to the song, it's a great one anyway!)
Used to let rumors do my work.
They got around real well.
Now they only hurt.
It's a liar's quirk.
This time I gotta say it straight.
I mean to do some good.
I'm calling out your name
While the chance remains.
I want you.
As mentioned earlier, this is my first attempt at tabbing.
Finals are nearing, and I'm at the end of my rope.
This was a nice little break away from studying, hope it helped you out
as much as it did me.
"Do you call this living really?"
