Song title: Sick of Life
Band Name: Godsmack
Album: Awake
Tabbed by: Luc1d M1nds

Tuning (high to low): E-B-G-D-A-C

     Tony Rombola, Godsmack?s guitarist, performs this song with drop D tuning then tuned
down 1 step (D-A-G-C-G-C).  But, you don?t need to detune all of your strings to play
this song.  I?ve tabbed the song with standard tuning but with a drop C sixth-string
(E-B-G-D-A-C) so you can get the open C sixth-string to ring during the Intro/Chorus riff.
     [One very easy way to detune the 6th-string to C is to strike a C note on another
string an octave higher (like 4th string 10th fret) and tune down the sixth string until
the pitches match.]

Intro/Chorus riff:

Pre-Chorus riff:
(because our 6th string is detuned to C we have to make a slight adjustment in our F5,
G#5, and F#5 power-chords. Hence, the following):

LYRICS:

Paralyzed, nothing?s getting through to me.
Hypnotized from all my surroundings.
I wanna be something I could never be.
I wanna say things that I could never say.
Yeah, I?m gonna do it again!

Sick of my life, I?m tired of everything
in my life.

Dragged down. Rubbing my face in
the ground. No time for the undecided.
I wanna know why I?ve always felt alone.
And I wanna love. Why am I untouchable
Yeah, I'm gonna do it again.

Sick of my life, I'm tired of everything
in my life. I never wanted to be sick
of my life. I'm tired of everything in my life.
