* This part may seem confusing, but basically as you hit
the D note, your fingers slide from the 7th and 9th frets
to the 10th and 11th frets. You can also give it a quick
vibrato after the slide to give it that "Lion's Den" feel.
The verses are exactly the same:
e|---0-------0----------0---------0---------0-------0-------0-------0--------| x3
B|-----7-------7----/10---10--------10--------8-------8-------8-------7------|
G|-------9-------9--/11------11--------11-------0-------0-------0-------0----|
D|-0-------0---------0----------0--------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------9-------9-------9-------9----------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
After every verse, this part comes in:

Back to verses, chorus, and then outro.
The last chorus is played twice, and the outro goes like this:
Bm, A
Then proceed to jam out on G7, F#m, D, Bm
LYRICS:
Verse 1:
Night descended like a blanket on the house
Where I miss you like a limb
I close the curtains, shun the working and
I put your record on
Chorus:
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Verse 2:
I, the lonely tax collector, never had
Such a feeling before you came
You descended, I amended
And I need it like a hole in the head
Chorus:
oooooooooooooooooooo
Outro:
YOU TOOK ME TO THE LION'S DEN
I WAITED FOR THE BEAST TO BEGIN
Have fun!
