This is my first tab posting so I hope you people like it! It is a
fairly simple song to play, just a bunch of chords played through
heavy distortion with liberal amounts of palm muting which is SO
effective!

All chords are ACTUAL notes for a 1/2 tone drop tuning so most can
be played on a normal tuned guitar if shifted down a semi-tone
(1 fret).

The chords used are:

	E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB e

A#5A#5  	7 9 9 x x x	or	x 2 4 4 x x
G5G5	4 5 5 x x x
C5C5	x 4 5 5 x x
F5F5	2 5 5 x x x
G#5G#5	5 7 7 x x x	or	x 0 2 2 x x
D#5D#5	x 7 9 9 x x
D5D5	x 6 8 8 x x
D#5(2)	0 2 2 x x x	(or if you don't detune x 1 1 x x x)

*ALL CHORDS ARE PALM MUTED UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE*

VERSE 1:

(For the first section, Pete plays the bass only, but guitar can be
added by hitting the A#A# note on the 7th fret of the bass E MajorE string
fast)

A#A# bass note ---------------------------> G5G5
I had the best intentions ...

A#5A#5				   G5G5
I'm a loose conection ...


PRE-CHORUS:

C5C5		 F5F5 G5G5  C5C5		G#5G#5 A#5A#5
A augmentedA shallow feeling      ...

CHORUS:

D#D#		 A#5A#5
I need a holiday, ...
C5C5			   G5G5
lose all the stiffs ...

D#D#		A#5A#5
I need a holiday...
C5C5		    G5G5
just go ...


VERSE 2: (same as verse 1)


Fell on the outside, ...

And everybody's shinin' ...


PRE-CHORUS: repeat


CHORUS: repeat


SOLO: (it is quite random so use your imagination!)

*IT IS EASIER IF YOU USE THE "or" CHORDS AS THEY ARE ALL ON
  ONE STRING DURING THE DECENDING PART OF THE SOLO*
If you don't want to drop tune, the D#5(2) can be played as
the two note diad.

G#5G#5      A#5A#5     D#5D#5 D5D5 C5C5 A#A#

G#5G#5      A#5A#5     D#5(2)


BRIDGE:
(heavy FAST muting!)

D#5D#5		    A#5A#5
If I talk you ...

C5C5		    G5G5
Come back ...

D#5D#5		  A#5A#5
The end is ...

C5C5					G5G5
If you ain't got a ...


CHORUS:

D#5D#5		 A#5A#5
 I need a holiday  ...
C5C5			   G5G5
 lose all the ...

D#5D#5        PAUSE ---------->
 I need a holiday ...
C5C5			 G5G5
 just go anywhere ...


*repeat chorus twice without the pause*

During the last two chorus' there is some strange chord being
contantly played in the backround. It doesn't alter the song much
so if you are a two piece have a widdle here!


So there it is. Please contact me with any comments,
suggestions etc.......
