Torn Apart by Stabbing Westward Tabbed by Dave Bloom [email protected] An awesome song, I must admit. Very powerful, musically and lyrically. This is not the easiest guitar song on the record, but not the hardest. Drop D tuning, 1/2 step down Db Ab Db Gb Bb eb intro... This riff is played a lot throughout the song. so listen for it... This is also the ending of the song, the E and the bending of the note not the Bb and C.
