My Friend Of Misery tab - metallica

PROPS GO TO: DEMOOOSSHHH!!!

The way this song is tabbed is fairly simple.  Upon
examination, you will find that some tabs are tied
together or connected by lines.  These are to be
played by two (2) guitars.  When this song is listened
to through headphones, the listener can hear the top
tablature panned to one separate ear with the lower
tablature to the other ear.  The parts where there are
just one tab is basically both guitars playing the
same thing.
	I still have yet to figure out the last solo.  If
anyone has the solo, please update it, or send it to
me and I’ll update it.  I didn’t wanna get TOO
technical (but I did).  Just listen to the song to get
a good understanding of the song.

Video My Friend Of Misery

Metallica - My Friend Of Misery (Studio Version)
Metallica - My Friend Of Misery. Check out my profile for all the other songs:) "My Friend of Misery" is the 11th song from Metallica's 1991 eponymous album. This song has never been played live in its entirety, but Jason Newsted often used the riff in his live bass solos. Newsted initially wanted the song to be the instrumental of the album, continuing the Metallica tradition of including an instrumental in all of their previous albums. The lyrics describe an outsider view of someone reveling in self-pity and maintaining a pessimistic view of the entire world. It is the longest track on the record at 6:47. The track was covered by the Melodic Death Metal band Dark Tranquillity in 1995 for the re-release of The Gallery. Metallica hasn't played the song at all since Newstead's departure. This maybe due to the fact that current bassist Robert Trujillo does not use a pick. MY FRIEND OF MISERY You just stood there screaming Fearing no one was listening to you They say the empty can rattles the most The sound of your own voice must soothe you Hearing only what you want to hear And knowing only what you've heard You, you're smothered in tragedy And you're out to save the world Misery You insist that the weight of the world Should be on your shoulders Misery There's much more to life than what you see My friend of misery You still stood there screaming No one caring about these words you tell My friend, before your voice is gone One man's fun is another's hell These times are sent to try men's souls But something's wrong with all you see You, you'll take it on all yourself Remember, misery loves company Misery You insist that the weight of the world Should be on your shoulders Misery There's much more to life than what you see My friend of misery You just stood there screaming My friend of misery Words and Music by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich and Jason Newsted Copyright © 1991 Creeping Death Music (ASCAP) International Copyright Secured All Rights Reserved
