Staind - All I Want Tab

I was just listening to the bands new album, "Illusion of Progress" and
I really liked this song when I first heard. It takes that "short, sweet
and to the point" approach by making things simple music and lyric wise.

All I Want is something I wasn't really expecting from Staind but
I just figured out Aarons part of the song. his rythmn is really simple.

(Update: 8/15/08)

I figured out the melody to the intro that Mike plays and I'm pretty sure

it's right (Update: 8/29/08) After watching several videos on YouTube and the staind official site I saw that Aaron uses four power chords and mike uses the traditional first position chords.

Verse 1:

What I leave, When you go, What I see, And what you show, And what I guess, And when I don't, Is something you all ready, all ready know,

Chorus:

I can't live without, All I think about, All I want is you, You're all I dream about, I can't live without, All I want is you,

Verse2:

The things I do, I go through, And all I see, When Im awake, And what I make, The shit that I take, Is something you all ready, all ready know

Chorus:

I can't live without, All I think about, All I want is you, You're all I dream about, I can't live without, All I want is you,

Bridge:

Ohhh,... Is you, Is you, Is you, Is you, You're all I dream about, That I can't live without, All I want is you

Chorus:

I can't live without, All I think about, All I want is you, You're all I dream about, I can't live without, All I want is you, I just can't live without you, When all I think about is you, And all I want is you any questions let me know | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
