Black Eyed Tab

   
Black-eyed by Placebo
Tabbed by Jose Cruz

Finally i got the correct version of this song, i saw the live Rock Am Ring Video, play 
and you will hear that it sounds exactly like Brian Molko plays it.
The "secret" is the tuning of the guitar, its like this:

e
B
G
D
A
F#

Or you can use a capo on the 2nd fret with a standar tuning guitar.

I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo and guaranteed to cause a fuss
I was never loyal except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed a product of a broken home

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/placebo/black_eyed_tab_ver_5.html ]
I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderline bipolar forever biting on your nuts
I was never grateful that's why I spent my days alone
I'm forever black-eyed a product of a broken home... broken home


1st Chorus (Overdrive 100% + Reverb 25%)

|----------15-------------| Note: Live is little bit different Brian
|--8-------16-------------|       instead of 16 and 15 on the middle strings
|--9----------------------|       Brian plays 21 and 20 on 5th & 4th strings
|--0-------0--------------|

Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed


I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo and guaranteed to cause a fuss
I was never loyal except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed a product of a broken home... broken home

Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed
Black-eyed, black-eyed

My guitar only has 21 frets so i cant use the frets 22 and 23 for the choruses, but 
uses those frets when he plays Black-eyed live.
