i tried tabbing this , but i’m not sure if it’s right . i also couldn’t figure out
the pre chorus , but other than that i think its pretty close .
tuning : standard
intro :
B5 D5 B5 D5 B5 D5
G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 B5
verse :
( palm muted )
B5 G5
paint it black and white if you like ,
E5 G5
the story’s still the same .
B5 G5
a generation built on a lie , that
E5 G5
everyone of us is safe .
B5 G5
paint it black and white if you like ,
E5 G5
if it keeps you sane .
B5 G5
you know the world just ain’t right .
E5 G5
so tell me , who’s to blame?
pre chorus :
and i will catch you , but who might
break the fall?
[ chorus ]
B5 D5 E5
goddamn , i might be the son of sam .
G5 B5
the only child of a holy man .
B5 D5 E5
i stand alone for all to see ,
G5 B5
’cause theyve never seen no one like me .
B5 D5 B5 D5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 B5
son of sam , son of sam
( same as verse 1 )
burning buildings from above .
send the best , and send their love .
turn away . goodbye , goodnight .
go to sleep , now don’t you cry .
are you afraid your life means less?
are you concerned you might be next?
it’s much too soon for me to tell ,
if you’re in heaven or in hell .

son of sam , son of sam
bridge :
B5 G5
your ceiling falling piece by pieces ,
E5
raining down like concrete .
G5 A5
just surrender , and remember what
A5
you’ve done to me .
B5 G5
look now , over your shoulder .
E5
no , it’s not over . it’s just beginning .
G5 A5 B5
and i will write the final ending
