This is the best I can get this song so far. It isn't as goog of a tab
as my others, but I think with what I got hear, you should be able to
get the basic riff, if you have a suggestion go ahead and send, i wont
be offended. Once I figure it out more clearer I will post it.

The lyrics...


Back when you were my life

You gave me something that I could live for

Now everything's changed

You're gone but I'm still here waiting


How can i hold on with nothing to hold on to

Why should I hold on

When there's nothing to hold on to


Sex made me feel alive but now i'm

So bored with mindless passion

Drugs were somewhere to hide but

They left me feeling cold and empty


How can I hold on

With nothing to hold on to

Why shoul
