  Torn

  by Toad the Wet Sprocket

  off the _Pale_ album

  To do the cool shimmering guitar at the beginning, turn your volume

  knob down low and strum the chord, using your pinky finger to turn

  up the volume knob.  If you do it right, you'll get virtually no

  attack on your strum.

  

  [the riff]

  The riff doesn't sound good unless it's backed by a bass.

  If you're just playing this acoustically, play the chords. :)

  [intro]

  

  Bm  Gbm  G  (2x)

  

  [verse1]

  Bm      Gbm       G

  I       fear    nothing

  Bm      Gbm    G

  Besides my - self

  Bm     Gbm     G

  Please don't touch me

  Bm                  Gbm               G

  Love like an infant trying to stand up

  

  

  [chorus]

  C                               G

  Am I two souls,  one hard, one cold?

  C                                G

  Am I real?  I don't want to feel anything

  D          C

  Anymore

  

  

  [verse2]

  Bm      Gbm       G

  I       feel    nothing

  Bm     Gbm    G

  Beside this pain

  Bm     Gbm     G

  Please don't watch me

  Bm                  Gbm          G

  Love like an infant scared and crawling

  

  

  [repeat chorus]

  NOTE:  I originally played this song as a Bm D G Bm A G progression,

          and, acoustically at least, it sounds fine that way.  It

          can be easier than barring the Gbm.
