"Lost in Germany" by King's X

Written by: D. Pinnick, T. Tabor, J. Gaskill, and S. Taylor
Tab by: John Myers

Note:
1) The E string is tuned down to D
2) This song has many portions that are "muffled" (or "heavily
damped") as well as pull-offs, hammer-ons, & slides. I have
not tried to included all of those things here. If I did, I
would probably only get it wrong. Use your best judgement...
3) I have tried to show timing under each tab. If you know
the song, you probably won't need it, but I included it anyway
for the "timing" nit-pickers (of which I am a charter member)
4) If you use the tab, find it helpful, find something wrong, etc,

Bridge (or "other part", depending on your musical knowledge & prowess)

I broke the bridge into two levels of complexity. This way, the less
dexterous guitar player can focus on the melody (bass) line before
attempting to add the "fill" notes.

Bridge: type a) this part shows just the promenant melody line)

Lyrics:

Verse: Moving in a bus too close for comfort
Listening to all the gibberish around me
wonder! How much longer can I stand it
Looking for a phone I cannot find

PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
Like a politician in disguise
You know I had to look you in the eyes
and smile
While I crawled another mile in

Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany

Verse: Swimming in an ocean of your feelings
Counting every moment go one by one
Laughing to keep from crying out in anger
Praying that i can make it through this night

PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
It was like a never ending week
But I learned to turn the other cheek
and smile
While I ran for one more mile in

Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany
Germany, lost in Germany

Verse: Shooting at a target that eludes me
Hammering on a nail that just won't go in
Biting on a tongue that wants to speak out
Searching for a light that I can shine

PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
But now I have crossed that borderline
and I wonder if I'll ever find
your hand
`Cause I did not understand in

Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany
Germany, lost in Germany

Well... that's it.

I know that I haven't included all the pull-offs, slides, hammer-ons,
etc, but I think that the notes and timings are all fairly accurate.

Enjoy, Good Luck, & remember... Always pillage BEFORE you burn!
