Tabbed by: Myself

Tuning: Standard

This tab is based off of the 2005 mix from the Taxidermy album; this song is mostly 
played with heavy distortion.


--Chords--

The guitar plays a sixteenth rhythm of fifth chords throughout the song; this serves as 
the chord structure for all parts, verse and chorus included.

Gm                        F             Gm
Debbie dates daily with a boy for every finger

    Gm                              F              Gm
She leaves with one now and leaves another left to linger

Bb                            Am                Gm     F   Gm
Coldly Debbie tells me it's a world of give and take

    Gm           F                 Gm
But I say "Debbie, bring it closer to the wake."


--Bridge Riff--
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/a/abney_park/the_wake_crd.html ]
This riff is played during the bridge, which occurs after the second chorus and begins 
with the lyrics "Jason jets his jag up to speeds that's past eleven."
