Song: Set the Tigers Free
Album: Becoming a Jackal
This is just the acoustic guitar part, the electric part isn't included, but could be
easily worked out. I can't name some of the chords at the moment, so if you could leave whatever
names you know in a comment, it'd be much appreciated! Standard tuning.
The X's on the low E string are percussive slaps made by the thumb of the right hand, at
regular time intervals. This string is being muted by either the thumb or another finger that's
fretting the chord on the left hand. The chords should be strummed with the rest of your hand.
The strumming pattern is DU-slap-DU-slap

Lyrics:
V1: Farewell to my only friend
You've been so good to me
Now the carnival has ended
Let's set the tigers free
V2: The spring was always early
And the winter never came
But since I got this hunger
It just hasn't been the same
C1: I'm leaving for the great wide open plains
Leaving while this holy spark remains
I see you've written promises to make me stay
But it really doesn't matter now anyway
I'm leaving
V3: True love feeds on absences like pleasure feeds on pain
So no matter where I'm standing I still love you all the same
And I hope you feel the same way when its your turn to disappear
I'll be cheering from the sidelines with a sandwich and a beer
C2: I'm leaving for the great wide open plains
Leaving while this holy spark remains
I see you've written promises to make me stay
But it really doesn't matter now anyway
I'm leaving
V4: And all at once I step outside into the wind and rain
I let it wash my weary eyes and see you do the same
(And all at once I step outside into the wind and rain
I let it wash my weary eyes and see you do the same)
C3: I'm leaving for the great wide open plains
Leaving while this holy spark remains
I see you've written promises to make me stay
But it really doesn't matter now anyway
I'm leaving
