Hello, y'all Motorhead freaks. Thing is with this catchy little song that I learnt it
my "Bro'", who is a damned good guitarist / bassist, so all of the credits 4 this tab is
all of the blame is mine.
For I hate writing tabs, and I don't have too much time either, I stick the
here with the lyrics. All of 'em meant as power chords, obviously and the solo'd be 
(sorry 4 dat).
For sure you'd be able to figure it out from here on, if I missed something, lemme know.
guitar is tuned in a classic Motorheadish 1/2 step down. Also there is a cute riff in
chorus, I'll mark it with "D*"
D*= notes creeping down from F-E-D as a power chord on fret 9 - 7 - 5
So... the song kicks in with an E and keeps hitting the deep E string at the 3rd fret,
the rhythm listening the tune, you'll get it.
BURIED ALIVE - Motorhead
E/GTimes are hard and times are bad,
Nobody is innocent,
GSay just what you want to see,
ATell me who you want to be,
GSee the only friend you got,
AOpen throat and money shot.
EGone for dayC, Gout for a rideA,
                   E               D  D*
Can't stay in here so I'm going outside,
EBurned in thCe sun, Gsoaked to the skinA,
                   E                D  D*(x2)
Buried alive and it's doing me in.
Time is now and you're the one,
Keep us from our liberty,
In the night we spend our seed,
Listening to women bleed,
See the one you want the most,
Hanging from the whipping post.
Gone for a smoke, out for the day,
Can't stand the pain so I'm going away,
Taken in lust, given in sin,
Buried alive and it's doing me in.
Time to be the man you are,
Nobody is gonna win,
All the time we see the deal,
Devil driver, hell on wheels,
See the world and shoot it dead,
Burn the town and paint it red.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, basically it is it, except for the solo, I find it quite right, playing along with
song'd proove it.
Have fun,

See the only friend you got,

Open throat and money shot.

Buried alive and it's doing me in.

Time is now and you're the one,

Keep us from our liberty,

In the night we spend our seed,

Listening to women bleed,

See the one you want the most,

Hanging from the whipping post.

Gone for a smoke, out for the day,

Can't stand the pain so I'm going away,

Taken in lust, given in sin,

Buried alive and it's doing me in.
