SONG: "Dead & Bloated"
BAND: Stone Temple Pilots
TUNING: Regular or Dropped D.
Well, it seems as if there's no tab to this yet, and I love this song, so
here it is. As far as tuning goes, if you can slide your fingers up and down
the strings fast, use the Dropped D option for a fuller sound. If you're like
me and aren't that fast, the standard tuning option works just fine.
The rythyms aren't exactly spaced or anything, but I spaced them to try to
give you an idea of how it goes.
Also, if something's wrong (and there probably is - this was whipped out in
under 15 minutes) please send a kind, happy note my way. People make
mistakes. I am a person; therefore I make mistakes.

*LYRICS*
\======/
I am smellin' like the rose
That somebody gave me
On my birthday deathbed
I am smellin' like the rose
That somebody gave me
'cause I'm dead & bloated
Yeah, and she says it's natural
I feel I've come of age
When she peeks I start to run
You can't swallow what I'm thinkin'
You can't swallow what I'm thinkin'
I run through the world
Thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
I am trampled under sole of
Another man's shoes
Guess I walked to softly
========================
