DROPPED D TUNING
(note - I think this song is actually either in dropped C tuning or
White uses a whammy bar for the fills during the chorus. He only plays
the low C twice during the entire song though, so I ve omitted one
which isn t really necessary and changed the other to keep it
dropped D.)

So now you re mad, denying the truth

that it s colder when she rocks the boat, but it s the
cause hittin on the Cardinal Laws?

So to you, the truth is still hidden
and the soul plays the role of a lost little kitten but
you should know that the dark is one kitten?
she s been singing it all along, but you were
OUTRO
hearin a different song
ya you were hearin a different song
but you were hearin a different song
