Lyrics

Twist, you're holy opposition twist

The twisted parts and pieces, this

I guess you'd better think it God

You knew that, easy as it was.

Come on, give me somethin' special

Somethin' I need

Drain the circle

Lay low, and never prove your power

Say so, so I can hear your words

Peel the skin away from my eyes

And look in.

See all the things that you put away

But you are inside.

Listen to me,

Cuz I can hardly exist

Without your little pussy

Give me holy water

I know that you will let me know.

Aah, Ah-oh-aah, Ah-oh-Aah, Ah-oh...Aah.

Guitar TAB

Tabbed by Johannes Gammelby

*= Palm mute the note above
~=let it ring
)=bend the note
/=slide to

Drop-D tuning but you can play it in normal tuning but my guitar was in drop-d when I started 
this song and I was too lazy to re-tune it:)

Here we go, it's fairly easy once you've played it a couple of times.

I know it's not exactly right but this should give you an idea.
Just give it a few more bashes here and there in the palm muted parts.
