Hi! This a TAB for a big HIT from the german breaktrough band
Guano Apes. Tabbing it was quite hard and I'm not completely sure
about everything, especially the bridge is weird. But if you've got
a nice wammy pedal, you'll be able to figure it out. Enjoy this or
flame me, but please tell me what you think!!

Have you ever been for sale? When your isms get smart
Oh so selfish and mindless with that comment in your eye

Don't split your mentality without thinking twice
Your voice's got no reasons

A trip without chances
