Band: Marilyn Manson.
Song: Last Day On Earth.
Album: Mechanical Animals.
Tabbed By Ben Wright (yoda13@another.com).
Normal tuning, only need the E and A strings for this.
I can't actually hear a bass line in the actual song but it
is a great track so anyone who wants to play anyway,
here's how. Try using a Flanger pedal as well to give it
a bit more of creepy feel.
Intro/Chorus:
A: 2-2-2-2-2--2-------------------------------- REPEAT 3 TIMES
E: -------------3--3-3-0--0-0--0-0--0-0--0-0-0-
A: 5-5-5-5-5--5-3--3-3-2-
At the end of the first chorus it's the following.
A: 5---------------3--------2
Verse/Bridge:
E: 5-5-5-5-5--5-3-3-3-3-3--1-1-1-1-1--1-3-3-3-3-3--3-5-5-5-5-5--5-3-3-3-3-3--3
A: 5-5-5-5-5--5-5--5-5--5-5-5
That's it.
Order:
Intro.
1st Verse. (x 4)
Chorus.
2nd Verse. (x 4)
Chorus.
Bridge. (x 3)
Chorus. (x 2)

| I agree with anomalous. I don't think there could be anything more romantic than knowing the world is ending and that you're going to die, and spending that time with the person you love so you can have as much time with them as possible. | |

| I think that it is about an apocalyptic dream that he had, in which the world was ending and he was trying to find his lost love. Also, I think its based on a dream because of the ambiguity of wether he found them, and the profound sadness of how the world is ending. This is the sort of thing that one only really gets from dreams. | |

| He's easily one of the most intelligent musical artist ever, all the negative effect from his demeanor is purely a sought out gift he was given due to the fact he uses his talent as a tool for mankind. | |

| "I'm so empty/here without you/I know they want me dead" I think its not such like the entire world is collapsing, just you. and I suppose you would want to spend it with someone you love | |
