MAIN OFFENDER - THE HIVES
                       from the album "Veni Vidi Vicious"



TAB by Ansgar Wolsing (www.schrammel-dich-fit.de)



I haven't transcribed all those "little sounds" 
used as fills between the different parts of the song.
Often parts of the INTRO are repeated, nothing special...


/  = strum sixteenth notes
|* = repeat

LYRICS:

(main riff)
I'm on my way. 
Can't settle down.
(main riff) 
Stuck in ways of being an ass 
And I got a lot of nerve that I'm ready to pass. 

(main riff)
I'm on my way. 
Can't settle down.
(main riff) 
Stuck in ways of sadistic joy 
And my talent only goes as far as to annoy. I'm on my way


A5           D5       F5      G5
   This is my main offender. 
A5           D5       F5 
   This is what I got and it
F5              (tacet)
Got me saying - Why me? 


(fill1 + main riff)
I'm on my way. 
I get around. 
(main riff)
Not too sure about what I do. 
Feel I've got to stop a second just to think it thru. 
(fill1 3x)
And so I stop! 

(fill1 + main riff)
I'm on my way. 
Yeah I get around.
(main riff) 
Thought it all over and now I spit it out 
and when I spit on those that I care less about 
I'm on my way. 


This is my main offender. 
This is what I've got and it 
Got me saying - Why me?


(fill1 + main riff)
I'm on my way.

(repeat main riff w/git2 'til fade)
