Song: Oh, The Irony
By: The Perfect Failure
Tabbed by: Michael Workman
Email: fltbrok89@hotmail
Tuning: Drop-D
I only put the lead guitar for this one because our rhythm guitarist plays close to the
thing, and I can't remember the progression for the solo. I did put the second guitar
for the dual part, it's at the ending.

:LYRICS:
i cant stand this anymore
i cant take it
the lies youve fed me
are now all dying
you wont be here for tomorrow
and i'll make sure it stays that way
its so hard to see blinded by lies
you lied i cant believe i loved you
but the irony of the way you die
is i never had to fucking touch you
cant you see what youve done
or what youve killed
youve made a mess of all i knew
your fate is near as your eyelids close
now i see that dreams come true
its so hard to see blinded by lies
you lied i cant believe i loved you
but the irony of the way you die
is i never even had to touch you
its so hard to see blinded by lies
you lied i cant believe i loved you
but the irony of the way you die
is i never had to fucking touch you
