Only God Knows Why tab by Kid Rock

Tabs with lyrics

Album:    Devil W/O a Cause



After searching around on the net 1/2 an hour for the solo, I gave up and

decided to figure out myself and submit it to make it easier for all you

other bastards.


The only difference with my version is I play the chords with the bottom

two strings open.  It makes it easier to play and sounds a lot nicer, too.

*Check out the bottom to see what I'm talking about.*

(Std. Tuning)

 E MajorE BB G+G D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE



Verse: E MajorE BB A augmentedA E, E MajorE BB A augmentedA E MajorE  repeat until....



D MajorD                  E MajorE

I guess that's the price.......


A augmentedA                                     E MajorE

Outstretched stands............





Bridge:
