Lyrics:
see the shadow of a stranger
surn around and youre life's in danger
this crazy world's in a grave situation
check the children, are the sleepin'
will they wake from the sirens screamin'
ahhhhh...
Shocker! Shocker!
We're like lambs to the slaughter
Shocker! Shocker!
We're in the fire and it just gets hotter
See the light, it's the city burnin'
the homeless shudder cause the leaves are turnin'
the winter's comin' with it's cold compassion
a killer's loose and the dead stand trial
cause god's the only witness on file
man's inhumanity to man's fashion
ahhhhh...
Shocker! Shocker!
We're like lambs to the slaughter
Shocker! Shocker!
We're in the fire and it just gets hotter
We will have the power
we will have the glory
in our shining hour
we will write our own story
we will have our own world
we will have it our way
standing like a tower
the sun will shine on our own day
hints:
the main riff (not palm muted) and the part while singing "shocker! shocker!" sounds
with hammer on's and pull off's too....
The song is build up on two guitars...but i thing with this tab you can figure out the
important things and fill the rest with a little bit of improvisation.
I'm always interessted in corrections or hints to play this track a better way... and by
way: the solo is still untabbed... so ... come on all you solo-wizards :-)!
!!!Greets from Berlin!!!
