In my hour of need
Ha you're not there
And though I reached out for you
Wouldn't lend a hand

Through the darkest hour
Grace did not shine on me
It feels so cold, very cold
No one cares for me

Did you ever think I get lonely
Did you ever think that I needed love
Did you ever think to stop thinking
You're the only one that I'm thinking of

You'll never know how hard I tried
To find my space and satisfy you too

Things will be better when I'm dead and gone
Don't try to understand, knowing you I'm probably wrong

But oh how I lived my life for you
Still you'd turn away
Now as I die for you
My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name
All these years I thought I was wrong
Now I know it was you
Raise your head raise your face your eyes
Tell me who you think you are, who ?

I walk, I walk alone
Into the promised land
There's a better place for me
But it's far, far away
Everlasting life for me
In a perfect world
But I gotta die first
Please God send me on my way

Time has a way of taking time
Loneliness is not only felt by fools
Alone I call to ease the pain
Yearning to be held by you, alone, so alone, I'm lost
Consumed by the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain

Won't you hold me again
You just laughed, ha, ha, bitch
My whole life is work built on the past
But the time has come when all things shall pass
This good thing passed away

In my darkest hour

The intro is wrong. Don't tab if it isn't perfect.

This should be the intro, you went a bit ahead:
|-----------------|-----------0-------|
|-----------------|---------0---0-----|
|-------7~--------|-------7-------7~--|
|---4-5-----------|---4-5-------------|
|-----------------|-------------------|
|-0---------------|-0-----------------|

From 4 to 5 is much easier than the 9 to 5! Mustaine probably did do it the way u wrote it but not every1 has his freakishly flexible hands.

Asides from this, you did an ace job, 5 stars!

Not tried
but this looks right... :)

nothing to do with tab but has anyone noticed this is pretty similar to the structure of for whom the bell tolls by metallica...the guitar intro in this reminds me of the bass intro in FWTBT
a lot of their songs sound similar...
dave always claims he wrote some metallica songs then releases his versions or similar songs

Great tab. Thank you Dave Mustaine and David Ellefson, for this marvellous song!!!
May 29 2008, 01:27 pm by MegadethMan16 |

Wrong. There is no delay effect on this part. It's two guitars playing two different things.

@lordbyron91:|

He doesn't claim it, he was in metallica at the time. He wrote a large part of kill 'em all and ride the lightning I believe. I don't know about FWTBT but he did make his own version of the four horsemen (mechanix) because it was partially his anyway.

Great tab!

P.S.- Im a Rattlehead, he probably has the newer version, which cuts in a few seconds later, so this is still right.

P.P.S. Lordbyron91, Dave was IN Metallica and wrote alot of their earlier songs, i'd re-write them too if i got kicked out the way he did
August 6 2009, 08:05 pm by DarthChop |
Dude, what the hell is going on with your verse riff !?!

And the rest of you... shut the **** up !!!!!
Dave isn't in Metallica anymore !!!!!!

u think maybe its on purpose seeing as how this song is dedicated to cliff burton?
