The bottom part fades in, don't play them one after the other! Stick a bit of chorus on
the arpeggio.

The power chords with the x in them are heavily palm muted, which is a little difficult
to notate here. Give the track a good listen and see if you can pick it up, but if this
tab isn't clear enough I'll try and do a beat-by-beat demonstration here. On the third
repetition, slide out from the final E5 chord, as the guitar briefly stops at this point,
and come back in half-way through the B5 rhythm.

The second time around, instead of sliding out, use the last C5 chord as the same one in
the faded part of the intro - use a E5 and G5 to get back into the chorus, instead of
just sliding out.

Both parts fade in. The arpeggio uses the D chord from the preceding chorus, and then
the power chord section emerges from under the G chord of said arpeggio. Palm mute where appropriate.
Solo:
Is coming! The rhythm alternates between G and D for the first half, drops to a chugged
E5 chord, then returns to G and D.
Outro:

The outro is the same as the chorus/riff before it, only ending on this slight variation.

Stone blind
In the dark
Vision of beauty with an ugly heart
Stone blind
To everything about her
She pulled the wool over my eyes
But the last nail in my coffin robbed me blind
It's the truth I can't deny
Oh it feeds off good intentions
As you beg for second sights
CHORUS
She's got me
Stone blind
In the dark
Vision of beauty with an ugly heart
Stone blind
To everything about her
She always comes on way too strong
And the world fills up with fire when she's gone
My double talking debutante
In a hustle she will own you
Until she gets all that she wants
CHORUS
She's such a wicked thing
And though I've seen it all before
I'm in the dark again
The woman's gone away
Stone blind
In the dark
Vision of beauty with an ugly heart
Stone blind
To everything about her
About her
CHORUS
Stone blind (She pulled the wool over my eyes)
Stone blind (She shot me down and robbed me blind)
Stone blind (And now I'm begging her for second sights)
She's got me stone blind
