Scissors Chords
by: Slipknot

tuning = Drop D down 1 1/2 steps (B-F#-B-E-G#-C#)

Key:
x - dont play that string
/ - slide
pm - palm mute

Note: there are no 10's and 11's unless stated!!!

Intro

E |-77777-|
B |-xxxxx-| - tremelo pick this with a weak flanger effect.
F#|-55555-|

Then comes in a second guitar

E |-7777777777777777-|
B |-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-| - here, increase the flanger effect when the 6's are played
F#|-55555555/6666666-|

Before the heavy part ("Broke away my tear spout...")

B |-7-7-7-7-|
F#|---------|

The heavy part ("As i lie there whith my tongue spread wide open...")

B |-111-0-|
F#|-111-0-|
B |-111-0-|

The Chorus Riff ("Its hard to stay between the lines of skin...")

B |-021-021-00-5-05-01-|
F#|-021-021-00-5-05-01-|
B |-021-021-00-5-05-01-|
pm  --- --- --   -  -

This riff comes in before "binding my time..."

B |-0000-01-|
F#|-0000-01-| - followed by percussion sounds
B |-0000-01-|
pm  ---- --

"Binding my time until the time is right"

B |-00-00-11-11-11-|
F#|-00-00-11-11-11-|
B |-00-00-11-11-11-|

The riff when he starts screaming after "Binding my time..."

B |-1--0-|
F#|-1--0-| - let the chords ring
B |-1--0-|

Then there is that noisefest part with feedback. Most notes resemble the intro
so play around with that. Im sure its a random thing when the band plays it live
(if they do...). It kinda reminds me of Kurt Cobain and his feedback-led solos.

Towards the end ("I want my time.. Id rather die..."

B |-7-|
F#|-7-| - this chord is played with flanger
B |-7-|

"Need Time!" (when Corey goes all psyco!)

B |-00-00-|
F#|-00-00-| - Just that chord
B |-00-00-|

Vermilion Part 2 Chords and Lyrics
by: Slipknot

G#m                          B
She seemed dressed in all of me
                  G#m
Stretched across my shame
                      B
All the torment and the pain
                          G#m
Leaked through and covered me
                               B
I'd do anything to have her to myself
                    G#m
Just to have her for myself
                       B
Now I don't know what to do
                  A
I don't know what to do
                B
When she makes me sad

G#m                  B
She is everything to me
             G#m
The unrequited dream
                    B
The song that no one sings
              G#m
The unattainable
                                    B
She's a myth that I have to believe in
                                     G#m
All I need to make it real is one more reason
                  B
I don't know what to do
                  A                     B
I don't know what to do when she makes me sad

    G              F#        Bm          F#
But I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#        Bm          F#
I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#        Bm          F#
I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#        Bm
I won't let this build up inside of me

G    A    F#    Bm

F#          Bm
A catch in my throat, choke
G          F#        Bm
Torn into pieces, I won't. No.
G            F#
I don't want to be this but

    G              F#        Bm          F#
But I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#        Bm          F#
I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#        Bm          F#
I won't let this build up inside of me
 G             F#       G#m             Bm
I won't let this build up inside of me

G#m                       Bm
Wont let this build up inside of me

G#m       Bm
She isn't real
G#m              Bm
I can't make her real
G#m       Bm
She isn't real
G#m              Bm
I can't make her real

G#m
