QUEEN OF PAIN - Alkaline Trio 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a song off the Alkaline Trio / Hot Water Music split due out January 22, 2002 
on JadeTree Records. JadeTree records is freely distributing the mp3 for this song @ 
http://www.jadetree.com. I can't wait to hear the rest of the Trio's new tracks and 
Hot Water Music's covers of the Trio's Radio and Bleeder. Well I promised on the 
forums to tab this gem out so here it is... and in two guitars format as stated! :) 
Oh and the number of chord strumming isn't perfect so figure that out yourself... 

On to the tab:
