Still Alive - Social Distortion
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: William Irianto Iskandar
Email: yhepeopleorthegun
Tuning: Standard
im using capo on 1st fret to play the open chord like most of Social D's song or like
Mike Ness did, because 3 of 4 chords are open chords if you are using capo
chords from beginning until finish was just:
A# G D# E# (without capo would be like that)
Well, I remember when we were young
And you said that I was done
Well, I walked the long boulevard
My head hanging down
And the word out on the street
I was back up on my feet
I was fighting the same old wars
Had to even up the score
And I'm still alive and I will survive
I can take what life's got to give
Just need a little time
And I'm still alive, talking that some ol' jive
I can handle what comes my way
Just gimme another day
And the times have changed my friend
I'll be here to the bitter end
With a guitar in my hand I stand a little taller
And I've been to hell and back
I ain't falling off this track
From the back to the front page
From the gutter to the stage
And I'm still alive and I will survive
I can take what life's got to give
Just need a little time
And I'm still alive, talking that some ol' jive
I can handle what comes my way
Just gimme another day
And from town to town I roam
Take me so very far from home
And I woke up one summer day and I fell in love
And the times have changed, my friend
I'll be here to the bitter end
And I'm here to make my stand
With a guitar in my hand
And I'm still alive and I will survive
I can take what life's got to give
Just need a little time
And I'm still alive, talking that some ol' jive
I can handle what comes my way
Just gimme another day
Another day
the opening solo was very similar with a second part of Wickersham solo, i think it was
a little bit different, but i guess you guys could figure it out.
