After not being able to locate one of my relatively new favourite
songs on the internet, I decided to take an afternoon out to tab
it. The mordents can be played with or without the acciccaturas,
but generally sounds better with them. Any questions/corrections:
frickinmeh@hotmail.com
Key:
[fret] = acciccatura
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off

G D
Well I know now
A Bm
It's the first time

That was fun now

From life I've resigned

When I feel I've got problems how wrong I am
G D A Bm
I'm awaiting life as another man
Don't crowd me
G D A Bm
G D A(1)

What they least suspect is coming next

I'm awaiting life as another man
