Who would have thought that the frontman of slipknot could write
such a great song for the acoustic guitar? not me, that's for sure.

Standard tuning (EADGBE)
The chords used are:

D#m C# F# Bb B5
:---6---4---2---6---x---:
:---7---6---2---6---x---:
:---8---6---3---7---4---:
:---8---6---4---8---4---:
:---6---4---4---8---2---:
:---x---x---2---6---x---:

The intro is the D#m and C# chords, with strummed chords
and fills based around this pattern:

:---6--4-------------:
:---7--6--6h7p6-4----:
:---8--6----------6--:
:---8--6-------------:
:---6--4-------------:
:--------------------:


D#m C# D#m C# C# D#m C# (fill)
Wish I was too dead to cry A self affliction face

D#m C# D#m C# C# F# C#
Stones to throw at my creator Masochist to which I cater


D#m C# D#m Bb
You don't need to bother I don't need to be

D#m C#
I'll keep slipping farther

B5 C# D#m C# (fill)
But once I hold on I won't let go 'till it bleeds


Wish I was too dead to care If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest

D#m
I wish I had a reason
Bb
My thoughts are open season
B5
For this I gave up trying
C#
One good time deserves my dying

(same chords as before)
You don't need to bother I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on I won't let go 'till it bleeds

interlude with solo (around D#m and C# chords)

intro again

(same chords as before)
Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face
Shelf forgotten with it's memories Diaries left with cryptic entries

(same chords as before)
And you don't need to bother I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on I won't let go 'till it bleeds

You don't need to bother I don't need to be
yeah I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on, once I hold on I'll never live down my disease

outro (same as intro)
