This is the correct tab for this cool
song. I wonder why the band never liked
the song. It´s just amazing how emotional
it is sung.

What a song!

And here, now for everyone…the Lyrics!


And I´d love you to notice
I´m devoted 
to destroy for noone
now´s that time again to take revenge
on all the debutants 
and their friends
the bitter charlemagnes so self – absorbed
the bodily remains such a bore

Hey, Yeah!
Was I good enough to break you?
Hey, Yeah!

And all I see is empty
cause now I´m one of them 
so adored
the slink of impotence 
that money can afford
we know who you are, 
where you live
is your innocence all that you can give?

Hey, Yeah!
Was I good enough to break you?
Hey, Yeah!

In the back of the car
the Angel´s dust was given back 
to the stars
stars 
Ahhhhhh!

Hey, Yeah!
Was I good enough to break you?
Hey, Yeah!

And in this Fall from grace
we´ll meet again
another time, another place
I´ve been down deep in you and me
Let´s see where we can go

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Angels!
Barbed wire!
*** you,
desire!
