This is a really good un, the solo is just fantastic,
but unfortunately I can't play it. If anyone can or has
got the tab, please mail it to me.

The rhythm in this tab is not correct, you'll have to
listen to the tune to figure it out.

Lyrics:
Guilty as charged, but damn it, it ain't right.
There's someone else controlling me.
Death in the air. strapped in the Electric chair.
This can't be happening to me.
Who made you god to say:
"I'll take your life from you"?

Flash before my eyes, now it's time to die.
Burning in my brain, I can feel the flames.

Wait for the sign, to flick the switch of death.
It's the beginning of the end.
Sweat chilling cold as i watch death unfold,
consciousness, my only friend.
My fingers grip with fear. What am I doing here?

Flash...

Someone help me! Oh, please god help me!
They're trying to take it all away.
I don't want to die!

Time moving slow, the minutes seem like hours.
The final curtain call I see.
How true is this? Just get it over with.
f this is true just let it be.
Wakened by the horrid scream.
Freed from this frightening dream.

Flash...
