Bleed - Song by Cold and Aaron Lewis
by Patrick C.
This song is awesome, I had a chance to see these guys in concert and
I freaken missed it. This is the best song I've heard in a long time.
I've only seen one other dude write the tabs so
I thought I'd show you guys what I came up with. This is my first one but it sounds good.
My e-mail is pat02@hotmail.com but don't ask me to do tabs cuz
I usually don't, so I wanna hear what you think about the tabs and
the song itself. I tabbed it so don't screw around with it and all that legal stuff, aight :)
The song is on Cold's new cd "13 Ways to Bleed" The tab was written with WorldPad.
Later
Bass lines were added under lyrics to help keep place
INTRO:
Figure one is played twice
Figure 3 is played once when lyrics start, then back to figure 1
If there are two guitarists then after figure 1 is played twice and figure
2 is played once, then the guitarists will play 1 and 2 at the same time.
The notes that are played together are upstrokes

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/a/aaron_lewis/bleed_tab.html ]
(figure two is played once when the lyrics begin. Yeah, I said that already
Then back to figure one)
I'm feelen crossed I take it inside
3 2 3 2 5
burn up the pain my thoughts are strange
4 2 1 2 5
just like the things I used to love, just like the tree that feel I heard it
4 2 1 2 5
art is still inside, I feel it
4 2 1-(this time, the pattern is just like four and five)
(switch to fig. 3)
I wanna bleed, show to the whole world all I have inside
3 2 3 2
I wanna scream, let the blood flow that keeps me alive
3 2 3 2
(fig. 1 played twice, if there are two guitarist-figure two along with)
Take all these strings they call my vains
5 4 2 1 2 5
wrap them around, every fucken thing
4 2 1 2 5
Presense of people, not for me I must remain in tune forever
4 2 1 2 5
My love is music, I will marry melody
4 2 1-(like four and five)
(figure 3)
I wanna bleed, show to the whole world all I have inside
3 2 3 2
I wanna scream, let the blood flow that keeps me alive Well I said
3 2 3 2
I wanna show how I feel
3 2 3 2
I wanna scream, I wanna bleed
3 2 3 2
Won't you let me take you for a ride. You can stop the world, try to change my mind. Won't you
3 2 3 2
let me show you how it feels. You can stop the world, but you won't change me. I
3 2 3 2
need music, I need music,
3 2 3 2
I need music to set me free. To let me bleed
3 2 3 2 3
2 3 2 (stroke inside strings on G a few times)
