So I'm still pretty surprised no one has come up with a tab for this song considering it
pretty easy. They do play it different ways live if you check out youtube but this is
or less a tab for the album version minus the solo. Just for reference, they are using 
chords except during the parts I tabbed at which point they simply use the barre
of the same chord. They also use full chords at the end of the song. Just listen and 
pretty easy to figure out. Also,the strumming pattern is just 8 strums per chord or eight 
notes in 4/4 time

Standard tuning

Verse 1:

F#            B             Ab    B
You think she took me for a ride
F#          B            Ab B
She held it all way up inside
F#           B                     Ab       B
She held her breath and turned her face all red
F#              B                Ab
That's how they found her in her bed all dead
B
And this is what i said:

Chorus:

F#         B                 Ab     B     F#
   She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
        B                 Ab     B     F#
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)

F#         B                 C#
   She's a mixed up son of a bitch

Verse 2: play the same as Verse 1

You think she had me in cage
Like a bird on fire, she flew into a rage
Her eyes are permanently crossed
Once you one won her you can swear
she make you feel like you already lost
because:

Chorus

She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
She's a mixed up son of a bitch (Yeah, Yeah)
M.O. punchline, delivered with a twist
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
Go, Go, Go!

Desperate living so divine
A sugar cube empire could be all mine
She's stuck in gear it's just too bad it's reverse
You say: "I've seen bad" - well I've seen worse

Interlude: Play the same chord progression as you have been doing the whole song but
pick it

Play 4x (note: on the last time, instead of playing the final B chord, just chop strum
whole chord)

See the TV glowing (ahhhh)

Hear the music flowing (ahhhh)
(Life is walking you by)
See the level tree growing (ahhhh)
(Life is walking you by)
and empty boat starts rowing
that's when you're knowing:
                    F# B Ab B
Life is walking you by
                    F# B Ab B
Life is walking you by

F#            B            Abm
I could never tell you the truth about her
    B
coz she's so mixed up
I could never tell you the truth about her
coz she's so mixed up
I could never tell you the truth about her
coz she's so mixed up

F#      B                 C#m
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
        B                 F#
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
