Pretend Best Friend (ver 2) by Terrorvision
Terrorvision
Pretend Best Friend
Standard Tuning
Tabbed by Phil Tweedie
Listen to the song for exact rhythms etc.
Decided to tab this out cos there isnt a decent guitar tab of it here, even the
"pro tab version" isn't right.
I'm confident this is 99.9% better than the other tabs for this song, saw it played
live plenty of times and this sounds damn fine to me.

The odds have built up on the chance you're going down
Cause you're looking pretty guilty in the court of the crown
My Friend's getting eager to complete this mission
Better all around just to sign the confession
Doesn't matter if you're innocent or guilty as hell
Friend's got a feeling that you're feeling unwell
Who cares about the truth when the truth's there to bend
Do as I say, I'm you're only friend

The wicked stepfather that took a step farther
Played the patron saint in his shining armour
With his sword of power, shield to protect you,
Tounge hanging out, going to get you,
You know I want to hug you, know I want kiss you
Dear old pop and you know I really miss you,
In the pantomime of life, he's behind you,
Says no I'm here to remind you

Was it the father or the son or the holy ghost
Or the butler in the kitchen or the game show host
Policeman on the corner, show you the way,
Geezer with the beard comes on xmas day
Your mother or your father or your sister or your brother,
Doesn't matter who it is they'll say there ain't no other
Might never see 'em or you se 'em every day,
Who gives a damn when you hear them say...
