Slipknot Chords & Tabs

 		Version: 9 Type: Tab 
Before I Forget Tab
    
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since i couldn't find a very good tab around here i tried to make my own.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, the tuning is Drop B, not drop D or whatever...
This tab contains the guitar parts of both Jim Root and Mick Thompson.
Where they play both, it sais: Mick and Jim..
NOTE: Jim's guitar is set much louder in this song, that's why you hear Jim's part the most
ANOTHER NOTE: I tabbed it all by ear!! I haven't copied anything at all
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE if you find anything that's wrong or isn't like you think it should be, contact me at:
                          darren_sierhuis@hotmail.com
            Or at me on youtube: NoN@me01071992
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm planning to make a cover and put it on youtube soon, i'll update this then and give the link :)

Enjoy!! :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEAS RATE OR DO ANYTHING! This is my first tab btw

|-----------------------------------|
|-9======12======11======10=====----|
|-X------X-------X-------X------\10-|
|-7======10======9=======8======\10-|
|-------------------------------\10-|

You almost don't hear the slide, but it's there, you can hear it when you
seperate left and right and slow down the tempo.

Jim
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|
|--------4*-5*~~~-----------------------4*-5*~~~|
|---------------------~-------------------------|
|-2-2-3----------2-2-3---1*-2*~~~2-2-3----------|
PM.....          .....           .....

You barely hear two harmonics, but listen closley they are there.
The first one is short, don't let it ring, just let the second ring.

(Chorus)

Lyrics:

(Intro)

GO!

(Verse)

Stapled shut - Inside an outside world And I'm 
sealed in tight - Bizarre but right at home 
I'm claustrophobic - Closing in And I'm 
catastrophic - Not again 
I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline 
I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene 
Catch me up in all your sordid little insurrections 
I've got no time to lose - I'm just caught up in all the cattle 

(Pre-Chorus)

Fray the strings... 
close the shades 
Hold your breath... 
Listen 

(Chorus x2)

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that 

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that

(Interlude)

(Verse)

I'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt And I 
wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the one who's hurt 
Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions 
I've got no right to win - I'm just caught up in all the battles 

(Pre-Chorus)

Locked in clutch...
pushed in place...
Hold your breath...
Listen!!!

(Chorus x2)

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that!!!!

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that!!!!

("Solo")

My end, 
it justifies my means 
All I ever do is delay 
My every attempt to evade 
The end of the road and my end 
It justifies my means 
All I ever do is delay 
My every attempt to evade 
THE END OF THE ROAD!!!!!

(Chorus x3)

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that

I 
am a world before I am a man 
I 
was a creature before I could stand 
I 
will remember before I forget 
Before I forget that

(Outro)

Yeah Yeah Yeah YeAh Yeah Yeah Yeah
OHHHH
