Hope this proves of some use to you. It may be a bit difficult to follow, in 
which case I apologise in advance, but it shouldn't be too bad. I'm new at 
TABbing stuff and it's more difficult than it looks!! If you know the song well 
enough then you should be able to follow the tab as you listen to it and figure 
it out from there. The fundamentals are there though and it shouldn't take too 
much work on your part to figure it out.

Faster Pussycat
House of Pain

The song ends with one guitar playing this outro.
     Outro

The Words go :

It's a little past supper time
I'm still out on the porch step sittin' on my behind,
Waiting for you.
Wondrin' if everything's alright,
Moma said,"Come in boy, don't waste your time,"
I said,"I've got time. Well he'll be here soon."
Five years old and talkin' to myself.
Where were you? Where'd ya go? Daddy can't you tell?

Chorus.
~~~~~~~
I'm not tryin' to fake it, and I ain't the one to blame.
No, there's no one home in my house of pain.
I didn't write these pages and my script's been re-arranged.
No, there's no one home in my house of pain.

Wasn't I worth the time?
A boy needs a daddy like a dance to mime and all the time,
Ilooked up to you.
I paced my room a million times.
And all I ever got was one big line, the same old lie.
How could you?
Well I was eighteen and still talkin' to myself.
Where were you? Where'd ya go? Daddy can't ya tell?

a Whip There's a Way. Good luck with it.
