Tuning: C# G# C# F# A# D# (Drop C#)

Hey guys just doing a quick tab by the acoustic version of addicted to pain played 
by myles kennedy at the moscot, without mark.
I think its not 100% correct because myles is doing a few variations with the 
chords he s playing just try to find out yourself
what sounds nice.  

  VERSE:

  Tell me how it feels to live a lie...Tell me do you know that it won't ever be the same

    C#5                                 E5

B|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--7----------------------------------10-------------------------------------------------|
D|--7----------------------------------10-------------------------------------------------|
A|--5----------------------------------8--------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
