SONG TITLE: My Own Worst Enemy

ARTIST/GROUP: Lit

ALBUM:

TRANSCRIBED BY: qualitytabs@hotmail.com

**********************************************************************

CHORDS:

 
 -------

E5 ([EADGBE]022xxx)

B5 (799xxx)

A5 (577xxx)

F#5 (244xxx)

21.04.00 - Just found some major errors in the main riff and the

guitar solo for this song. Fixed it, should be correct now.

Someone requested this song. I don't like it very much myself,

I mean it's not bad, but it's nothing special. I did this in

kind of a hurry so you'll excuse me if there are any mistakes.

I think it's pretty much correct though.

INTRO:

 
 ------

[RIFF 1 should actually be played by two guitars, one

playing just the chords, and the other playing just the

single notes, but I've arranged it for one guitar]

RIFF 1:

[E5] [B5] [A5]

 
 E|----------------------------------------| h = hammer-on
 B|----------------------------------------| / = slide up
 G|---8/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--8/9-9-9-9-9-------| \ = slide down
 D|---x---x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x---x-x-x-x-9--7--|
 A|---6/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--6/7-7-7-7-7-9--7--|
 E|----------------------------------7--5--|

Play this twice

You play the chords in the verses like this:

[E5] [B5] [A5]

 
 E|--------------------------------------|
 B|--------------------------------------|
 G|--------------------------------------|
 D|--2-2------2-2------2-2------2--9--7--|
 A|--2-2------2-2------2-2------2--9--7--|
 E|--0-0------0-0------0-0------0--7--5--|

VERSE 1:

 
 --------

[E5]Can we forget about the things I said when I [B5]was [A5]drunk?

[E5]I didn't mean to call you that[B5] [A5]

[E5]I can't remember what was said or what you threw [B5]at [A5]me

[E5]Please tell me, please te[B5]ll [A5]me

In the chorus a second guitar plays a simple line while

the main guitar plays the chords. It's like this: [play twice]

[E5] [F#5] [A5] [B5]

 
 E|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-4---5--|

CHORUS:

 
 -------

[E5]Why[F#5]

my car is in the [A5]frontyard, and [B5]I'm

sleeping with my [E5]clothes on[F#5]

came in through the [A5]window, last [B5]night

E5 [play RIFF 1 twice (same as intro]

and you're gone, gone

VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]

 
 --------

It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy

'Cause every now and then I kick the living shit out of me

The smoke alarm is going off and there's a cigarette

still burning, please tell me

CHORUS: [play like first cborus]

sleeping with my clothes on
