To sound like the SBTV version which is the sound I think everyone wants to go for the
bottom E and A strings are a half a step down.
The next string up (D)is half a step up. Nobody's said this yet!!
It's quite difficult so if you want to make it easier just knock off the C# string as
it's quite a stretch! My First tab! so enjoy!!! Hope it all makes sense!!

anything I miss!

Repeat this for the whole song as it's the same riff over and over!
Lyrics:
IÂ’m faded, IÂ’m faded, IÂ’m not sure if I can make it,
Oh but donÂ’t you cry for me,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it, oh,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it, oh,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it,
DonÂ’t you cry for me.
IÂ’m skipping through the days to come home,
A million conversations, autopilot, steer, flow,
IÂ’m on one one-man mission, eyes down, take note;
IÂ’ve never liked you, stay away from me,
DonÂ’t lock the bolt; this is the great escape from everything IÂ’ve ever hated, from all
this figuring
This lifeÂ’s shit that got me jaded, faded,
All the time the doubting got me underrated,
This is my mechanism, moving forward, isolated,
Belated superficial gestures of a phony type,
I come alive when IÂ’m incarcerated late at night,
I wish that I could leave this soul destruction every night,
That I could regress in an able-bodied prototype,
If that made sense IÂ’d leave it here, I have no lesser business,
IÂ’m immaterial but I still got things on a wish list,
This is desire; canÂ’t you hear it in my C+ English?
IÂ’d love the finer things but thatÂ’s not being realistic, ballistic,
Everybody goes when IÂ’m singing, IÂ’m sick of singing pain
So IÂ’m free, broken, winging,
Coming out my heart purer than the way IÂ’m living,
Maybe IÂ’ll see you, or maybe IÂ’ll just give in.
Yeah, itÂ’s just too much now that IÂ’m all grown up,
IÂ’ve been dragged through the dirt, now I should be blowing up,
Still IÂ’m blowing, still IÂ’m blowing,
And still I donÂ’t know where the hell I should be going,
So I guess it’s just live like this ‘til my mind goes snap,
No love, no drug could ever fill this gap,
Yeah I live for the high until it all floods back,
Like the tears of the years that I canÂ’t get back.
IÂ’m faded, IÂ’m faded, IÂ’m not sure if I can make it,
Oh but donÂ’t you cry for me,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it, oh,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it, oh,
Honey IÂ’m not worth it,
DonÂ’t you cry for me.
