When I'm Dead by Stabbing Westward
Tabbed by Dave Bloom

This song, is pretty unique to itself. I really can't
find the right adjectives to describe it. Anyway, there
are quite a few different chords in this song. I must say
after tabbing almost all the songs on this album, almost
every song has a B flat chord in it, just a little observation
for you.
Drop D tuning

For the verse, you play a C and then slide to a D,
then the F and D2. If you don't understand that,
e-mail me and i'll explain in better detail...
A change that I noticed. when I play this dong, the D2 chord
doesn't right to me anymore, if you have been feeling the same
try playing an A chord instead, and if it doesn't sound better
than I don't know what to tell you, I believe it is an A or the
D2, so there ya go...
