This is my favorite 10 Years song and I decided to tab the whole song.
The other versions were missing a little but props to them for trying.
The intro was a pain to tab but it?s all there, I hope this tab helps
whoever reads it. For tab requests go to my page. Thanks.

Trivia:
* "Russian Roulette" was formerly know as "Chemical Christ"
* The intro of "Just Can't Win" (00:00 - 00:06) you can hear a part of
"Rusian Roulette" (00:55 - 01:01 and lyrics "It's Russian Roulette with
no luck" it only plays 6 seconds and stops, following the intro of the
drums into "Just Can't Win").
