This is one of the best tunes on Altered Beast(at least in my opinion). It
just is powerful and gritty, so if you heard it live, you know that
distortion is heavily used. Like most of the songs on Altered Beast, this
song uses rhythm guitar and Richard Llyod backing up with the squeals and
lead alongside. If I ever get the lead part singled out, I'll add on.
But the song's fairly simple...
Verse Riff (played four times before first verse)
--palm mute this riff the whole way through
B N.C. E
Verse Riff 4 times, band enters on third riff
B N.C.
Are you made like God
When you start to bleed
B N.C.
Do you really know
What it is to breathe
B N.C.
Without a mind to think
Or a hand in fate
B N.C.
You're an animal
Filled with love and hate
Pre chorus Riff
E N.C. D E D E N.C.
5---pm~~~~~-------------------------------pm~~~~~~~~----------------------------------
And you
N.C. D E D E
And the way you move
N.C. E
And the things you say
N.C. D E D E
Your desperate dreams
N.C.
Are pathetic
I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
Why should we care
What we do or say
Why would we long
For yesterday
What is here
And who wants to stay
No lasting life
And no judgement day
And the fact of you
And the way you move
And the things you say
Your desperate dreams
Are pathetic
I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
What are you lookin' at?
Bridge Riff

I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people
And I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people
And I don't like people knowing about me
Get out of here
Just use the same chords as the chorus u
