This is a quite easy song; I saw a request for it and answered, but it seemed
strange to me the song couldn't be found in the archive. So I looked for it
and found 5 or 6 versions, all very similar, some with wrong notes, and all
incomplete - here's my version, hopefully a bit better:

lyrics & chords
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Am F C G

Am                  F           C
	How long how long will I slide
       G          Am F    C
	Separate my side I don't
         G                 Am   F
	I don't believe it's bad
       C                    G
	Slit my throat, it's all I ever


Am                                  Em
	I heard your voice through a photograph
Am                        Em
	I thought it up it brought up the past
Am                           Em
	Once you know you can never go back
                   G             Am
	I've got to take it on the otherside


	Centuries are what it meant to me
	A cemetery where I marry the sea
	Stranger things could never change my mind
	I've got to take it on the otherside
G                     Am
	Take it on the otherside
       G           Am
	Take it on, take it on
	

	How long how long will I slide
	Separate my side I don't
	I don't believe it's bad
	Slit my throat, it's all I ever


	Pour my life into a paper cup
	The ashtray's full and I'm spilling my guts
	She wants to know am I still a sl*t
	I've got to take it on the otherside


	Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
	A candidate for my soul mate bled
	Push the trigger and pull the thread
	I've got to take it on the otherside
	Take it on the otherside
	Take it on, take it on


	How long how long will I slide
	Separate my side I don't
	I don't believe it's bad
	Slit my throat, it's all I ever

Em C Em C

Em
	Turn me on take me for a hard ride
C
	Burn me out leave me on the otherside
Em
	I yell and tell it that it's not my friend
                 C
	I tear it down, I tear it down and then it's born again

Am F C G

	How long how long will I slide
	Separate my side I don't
	I don't believe it's bad
	Slit my throat, it's all I ever
	How long, I don't believe it's bad
	Slit my throat it's all I ever

Em during the verse works best at 7th fret position (079987)

Stuff to be added to this tab:
- all the little arpeggio played during the verse, on Am/Em
- the little solo after the bridge

Let me know what you can get out of it
Enjoy!
