guitar tabs lyrics

Placebo

Waiting for the Son of Man.

From the Brick Shithouse tab archive, which is no more. Recovered by web.archive.org

Tabbed by Brendan.

In the standard Placebo tuning (F Bb Eb Ab C C)

This is as correct as I can do these things.

[Intro]

[Verses]

Repeatedly strum this: xx4666 while doing one of the two other guitar
phrases, ideally on a second guitar (or bass?), though you can manage
with one.

[Chorus]

This is two different parts, this:
