Son of Sam Shinedown
I tried tabbing this, but i'm not sure if it's right. I also couldn't figure out
the pre chorus, but other than that i think its pretty close.
Tuning: standard
Intro:
[B5] [D5] [B5] [D5] [B5] [D5]
[G5] [A5] [G5] [A5] [G5] [A5] [B5]
Verse:
(Palm muted)
[B5]Paint it black and white if you [G5]like,
The stor[E5]y's still the s[G5]ame.
[B5]A generation built on a[G5] lie, that
[E5]Everyone of us [G5]is safe.
[B5]Paint it black and white if you [G5]like,
If it k[E5]eeps you sane.[G5]
[B5]You know the world just ain't ri[G5]ght.
So te[E5]ll me, who'[G5]s to blame?
Pre chorus:
And I will catch you, but who might
Break the fall?
(Chorus)
[B5]Goddamn, I might[D5] be the son of S[E5]am.
[G5]The only child o[B5]f a holy man.
[B5]I stand [D5]alone for all to[E5] see,
'Cause they[G5]?ve never seen no on[B5]e like me.
[B5]son[D5] of sam, [B5] [D5] Son[G5] of [A5]sam[G5] [A5] [G5] [A5] [B5]
(same as verse 1)
Burning buildings from above.
Send the best, and send their love.
Turn away. Goodbye, goodnight.
Go to sleep, now don't you cry.
Are you afraid your life means less?
Are you concerned you might be next?
It's much too soon for me to tell,
If you're in heaven or in hell.
Pre Chorus:
And I will catch you, but you might
Break the fall.
(Chorus)
[B5]Goddamn, I might[D5] be the son of S[E5]am.
[G5]The only child o[B5]f a holy man.
[B5]I stand [D5]alone for all to[E5] see,
'Cause they[G5]?ve never seen no on[B5]e like me.
[B5]son o[D5]f sam, [B5] S[D5]on of sa[B5]m[D5] [G5] [A5] [G5] [A5] [G5] [A5] [B5]
Bridge:
[B5]Your ceiling falling piece by pi[G5]eces,
Raining down like concre[E5]te.
Just surre[G5]nder, and reme[A5]mber what
[A5]You've done to me.
[B5]Look now, over your shou[G5]lder.
No,[E5] it's not over. it's just beginning.
[G5]And I will wr[A5]ite the fin[B5]al ending
(Chorus)
Goddamn, I might be the son of Sam.
The only child of a holy man.
I stand alone for all to see,
'Cause they?ve never seen no one like me.
Goddamn, I might be the son of Sam.
The only child of a holy man.
I stand alone for all to see,
'Cause they?ve never seen no one like me.
