version 2
Tuning: Drop B (B-F#-B-G-B-E)
Jani Liimatainen uses an 7-string guitar where the 7th string is darker (B).
But I have tabbed this in drop B so people with 6 strings can play it!

Outro (04:49):
|-------------|--------------------------------------| The outro part is
|-------------|--------------------------------------| Repeated many times until
|-------------|--------------------| 05:25. At 05:25-| Jani uses
|--8--5--10---|--------------------------------------| a kind of a delay effect.
|--6--3--8----|--------------------------------------| Listen to it and try to
|-------------|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-...-------------------| find it out with your own
. . . . . . . Delay effect. It’s kind
of hard to tab how it
goes with the delay. The
Delay goes slower and
Slower until it stops at
05:32.
Your pretty face seduced me,
blinded me from how you used me
I walked the long way home,
only to get hurt by you again
The longest glance, oh,
what illusions did I have of you?
A lone reflection splitting in two
You found all seven ways to keep me near,
near within your reach
You sure knew how to harness love,
but never made me more than want you
I'm not sorry, you will never get more out of me
'Cause I am blinded no more
You sucked out my will to live
You gave me the crown, and killed...
High road would have none to regret
Never left, I took the low road instead
Love is a little death between two little lives,
nothing more. Now I have myself to live for...
You sucked out my will to live
You gave me the crown, and killed...
High road would have none to regret
Never left, I took the low road instead Ooo, my life out of my hands I always gave eternal love another chance... Say the words, I wanna hear... all over again Consuming love, my only reason...
Nothing is service free,
such things cannot be healed,
that will do fine for me,
so come here, come, come, come...
And suck out my will to live
You gave me the crown, and killed...
High road would have none to regret
Never left, I took the low road instead
...in the same nightmare again...
...dark tunnel of love will never end
...taken for granted again
...too weak to say it is over, all over
Ooo, my life out of my hands
I always gave eternal love another chance...
Say the words, I wanna hear... all over again
Consuming love, my only reason...
We always seem to end up here and break a lance
Ready to give eternal love another chance...
You say the words, I wanna hear... all over again
Lust is my all consuming reason...
Now, take me again...
