Far Behind By: Social Distortion

This is my first tab. It is damn perfect too. Social D is my favorite band and this tab 
for them. Mike Ness is the shit. Anyways... Enjoy their new single on the Greatest Hits 
20 plus years and the man can still write a bitter punk rock classic. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Feel free to email me if you have any ?s. SocialDRcks@dls.net

Strum Each Chord Once

      G                 D
With friends like you, who needs enemies
 C
You aint right you aint ever gonna be
 G                   D                      C
Your out in the cold Im afraid you've been declined
 G                              D
You shake my hand while you're pissin on my leg
 C
Im cuttin you loose i dont need this misery
 G                      D                 C
Your soul is toxic you aint no friend of mine

Strum the chord once then palm mute. Listen to the song to figure out how many times. It 
just as good if you dont want to palm mute. Same chords as intro.

You talk real trash when Im not around
To build yourself up you got to tear me down
You'll have to excuse me I got better things to do
You smile through your teeth, you talk out your neck
Every chance you get your gonna stab my back
When times run out I got nothin left for you

           G   D   C
Im leavin you far behind
           G   D   C
Im leavin you far behind
             G     D   C
Stop wastin all of my time
           G   D   C
Im leavin you far behind

Yeah!

So Im pullin out the weeds Im takin stock
You can talk the talk but cant walk the walk
In our situation I've gotten the best of you
So Im leavin you to sink in all your glory
But you and me it's the end of the story
Get out of my way I've got better things to do

Im leavin you far behind
Im leavin you far behind
Stop wastin all of my time
Im leavin you far behind

Strum each chord once again like intro

With friends like you who needs enemies
You aint right you aint ever gonna be
Your soul is toxic you aint no friend of mine

Thats it. Plain and simple. Pretty awesome song. Saw Social D at Summerfest and they 
amazing. I've seen them numerous times before all over the country. Hope they keep touring 
maybe Mike could pull off another album.  Pce Out!
