Thumb
Tuned Down 2 Steps (Low To High: C,G,Eb,Bb,F,C)
Note
*On the repeats, Josh doesn't always play exactly the same thing,
just listen for it, it's not too tough. It's mainly on the ending riff.
*He will sometimes use wah as a filter effect. If you ever hear a live
version of any of their songs, you'll hear it more clearly.
*The sound at the beginning is flanged bass feedback

You don't seem to understand the deal
I don't give two shits on how you feel
You're burned by my lighter
You've been burned by my lighter
And my lighter is held down by my thumb
You're living in thought so
You're living in thought so
You're living in thought so...
You tried to turn me off
But you couldn't even turn me down
As I sat and I told you were living in hell
You're in desert ground
And now you've found
My foreman and you
And you'll since I got in this well...
You're living in thought so
You're in thought so
You're in thought so...

version 2
Tuning: E Standard
-------------------------------------------------------------
INTRO
-------------------------------------------------------------
The sound you can hear at during the start is feedback fra a bass or a guiter. My first
guess would be a bass. I Know it is hard to let the first not ring while playing the
rest but it is the only way you can play it if you want to do it in an E Tuning.
