Take Me Out Chords & Tabs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SONG NAME - Band Name
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Aaron Elsey
Email: amelsey@msn.com
Tuning: Standard
I could not find a decent tab for this anywhere so I made one myself. This is note for
note. I gave up on the lyrics mid-way through and just put them on the bottom. The tab
is in the exact order of the song. Some of the notes are one string instead of power
chords or octaves, but it sounds better this way if you are playing by yourself. Have
fun.

Lonely I will be here waiting for you
I'm just a
Cross hair I'm just a shot away from you
And if you
Leave here I will be broken shattered I lie
I'm just a
Cross hair I'm just assured that we can die
