 It seems like their using a slide, so I tried to tab it out so that it's
 possible to play with a slide on your pinky, without detuning the guitar
 
 
 INTRO(palm muted except on the last two notes) Repeat four times

 Repeat four times, play Fig.2, and do the same thing for the next verse.
 Then it plays the intro again.
 
 Late at night...          (play as power chord if you want it to sound fuller)

 Intro plays again under "I'll get you"
 
 I was born inside a cage...(I've got the bass and guitar tabbed together, and 
                             you have to take off the slide for this part.)

 Then it goes back to the Intro, and the rest of the song follows the same
 patterns.
 
 
 I'm So Bad
 
 Can't seem to find my way
 Someone tell me what to say
 Where am I going
 Where did I come from
 I don't know, I don't know
 
 Almost got to paradise
 But the smoke always gets
 in my eyes
 Everything I do is wrong
 I'm so bad . . . so bad
 
 Late at night, they're asleep
 I'm awake, get the urge
 Hit the street, jump a curb
 Alleyway, dark and wet
 Set the trap, I forget
 Who I am. But I know
 I'll get you . . I'm so bad
 
 I was born inside a cage
 Never knew anything but rage
 Although I tried so hard to adjust
 Love is something I don't understand
 Take what I need and I get what I can
 OH . . . I'm so bad
 
 I wake up in the morning so tired
 Dreamt that I was walking through fire
 The fire didn't hurt me though
 We're old friends
 
 Can't seem to find my way
 Someone tell me what to say
 Everything I do is wrong
 
 Pass the time, lie in bed
 Hotel room, T.V. set
 Got to move, might be dead
 Catch a ride, I'm awake
 Join a crowd, hidden blade
 Buy a drink, you better pray
 I don't get you
 I'm so bad . . . so bad
