STABBING WESTWARD - SHAME
Transcribed by ironcladlou

Intro is alternating octaves on an E chord. I play in Drop-D, so the tab would be

E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|
A|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|
D|-2--14-2-14-2--14-2-14--2-14-----------------------------------|

Your mileage may vary.
