I chose the notes in the chords such\r\nas to match the \"ugly\" sound of the song, instead of modifying to the nearest\r\nclean maj/min variants (which sounds to me more like the Johnny Cash cover).\r\n\r\n\r\nChord list\r\n==========\r\n\r\nThe list of chords is a bit complicated because there's many variants and\r\nunusual names. Some of the chords may be uncomfortable, or sound \"wrong\".\r\n\r\nOn the left side of the list you have the chord names (like A, Aaddb5(no3),\r\nAsus2,...) and on the right side how they are played (like \"x02220\"). \r\n\r\nThe \"x02220\" tells you which frets to hold, from the lowest string \r\nto the highest string. 'x' means that the string is silent, '0' means that \r\nyou play the open string, '1' means that you hold the first fret, '2' the \r\nsecond fret, and so on.\r\n\r\nFor example, \"Aaddb5(no3)  x0x240\" means: for the chord \"Aaddb5(no3)\", don't\r\nplay the low E string, play the open A string, don't play the D string, hold\r\nfret 2 on the G string, hold fret 4 on the B string, and play the open high E\r\nstring.\r\n\r\n\r\nA             x02220\r\nAaddb5(no3)   x0x240\r\nAsus2         x02200\r\nBadd11(no5)   x2x440\r\nBbm           x13321\r\nBm            x24432\r\nBmadd11       x24430\r\nBo12          x24x31\r\nBsus4         x24400\r\nDadd9         xx0252\r\nDadd#9        xx0262\r\nD11(no3,no5)  xx0020\r\nDsus2         xx0230\r\nE7(no3)       xx243x\r\nG6            355000\r\nG+6(no3)      3xx040\r\n                   \r\n\r\nSome comments about the chord names:\r\n - 'o' in the name 'Bo12' is shorthand for 'dim'. 'Bo12' expanded means \"B chord\r\n   with a minor Third and diminished Fifth and an added (perfect) Twelfth (= Fifth)\".\r\n   Another way to write this might be: Bdimadd5.\r\n - 'no3'/'no5' mean that a chord has no Third/Fifth\r\n - '+' is shorthand for 'aug'\r\n - figuring out the chord names was complicated, so I can't guarantee that\r\n   they're all right\r\n - see wikipedia's \"chord names and symbols (popular music)\" for more info\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Song\r\n========\r\n\r\n[Intro]\r\n\r\n[ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch] [ch]Dsus2[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch] x 4\r\n\r\n[Verse]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]   [ch]Dsus2[/ch]   [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch]   [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]     [ch]Dsus2[/ch]   [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch]  [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]\r\n     I hurt myself to- day     to see if I still feel[/tab]\r\n    \r\n[tab]       [ch]Dsus2[/ch]    [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch]  [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]     [ch]Dsus2[/ch]   [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch]      [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]\r\n     I focus   on   the pain, the only  thing that's real[/tab]\r\n    \r\n[tab]       [ch]Dsus2[/ch]    [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch] [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]      [ch]Dsus2[/ch]  [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch]  [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]\r\n   The needle tears a hole,   the old familiar sting[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]       [ch]Dsus2[/ch]    [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch] [ch]Bo[/ch][ch]12[/ch]        [ch]Dsus2[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch][ch](no3)[/ch] [ch]A[/ch][ch]addb5(no3)[/ch]\r\nTry to kill it all   away, but I remember everything[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n\r\n            [ch]Badd11[/ch][ch](no5)[/ch] [ch]G+[/ch][ch]6(no3)[/ch] [ch]D[/ch][ch]add#9[/ch]\r\n[ch]A[/ch][ch]addb5(no3)[/ch] [ch]Badd11[/ch][ch](no5)[/ch] [ch]G+[/ch][ch]6(no3)[/ch] [ch]D[/ch][ch]add#9[/ch]\r\n[ch]A[/ch][ch]addb5(no3)[/ch]\r\n\r\n[tab]    [ch]Badd11[/ch][ch](no5)[/ch]     [ch]G+[/ch][ch]6(no3)[/ch] [ch]D[/ch][ch]add#9[/ch]           [ch]A[/ch][ch]addb5(no3)[/ch]\r\n    What have I become?
