Note: THIS IS MY FIRST PUBLISHED TAB!

Comments:
This is a sweet new song from Saliva. It seems to reflect a change in their style. It has nice,
mellow tone that contrasts nicely with their tradtional hard-edge feel. Enough with the B.S., just make
sure you listen to the song to get timing, rhythm etc. If you can't find it on Kazaa or whatever, you can
find it on their website at saliva.com.
Now I know for a fact that this is not exactly correct. This appears to be the first published
tab of Always that I've seen so far, so I'm going exclusively off of what I hear. Like I said this is my
first tab, but its a fairly simple song, so It can't be too far off. I think it may be tuned down a half
step, but thats a pain in the arse and it sounds fine with this kind of drop-d tuning (both E strings are
dropped to D).
I encourage any and everyone to take this and fix it up and post it back up here for the
benefit of everyone else. Please email me with suggestions.

Intro-
I hear... a voice say "Don't be so blind"...
it's telling me all these things...
that you would probably hide...
am I... your one and only desire...
am I the reason you breath...
or am I the reason you cry...

I just can't take anymore...
this life of solitude...
I guess that i'm out the door...
and now i'm done with you...

Verse (Clean)

I see... the blood all over your hands...

was it all... just a part of your plan...
this pistol's shakin' in my hands...
