ARTIST: Sheer Terror
SONG: Roses
ALBUM: Just Can't Hate Enough
TABBED BY: Psychiropractor
Ringing in the new year with Sheer Terror's most festive, feelgood song: "Roses,"
NYHC's answer to Auld Lang Syne.
You know the drill: listen to the song to catch the timing and the fine-detail palm
muting, and noodle out your own guitar solo (I didn't attempt to tab that, since I'm
a half-assed lead player at best). Standard tuning, crank the distortion, watch me
for the changes, and try to keep up :)

Now I'm tired of trying to understand, so ignorant I'll remain.
I feel repressed, and I'm not impressed by the games you children play.
Some of you may bask in the sun and some of you may hide.
Whenever I hear your laughing voices, I just want to cry.

So many years of nothingness, yet you seem so content.
You forget to realize, it's all lies, of deceit.
Call me a bastard, call me afraid, I'll just turn a deaf ear.
For all I know is that for the roses, it's been a wonderful year.

Now the party's over, and your host has died.
Kick your shoes off as you walk through the door, it's time to come inside.
The world is crumbling, a drunkard stumbling.
A new year's come alive.
