 You,           The slit wrists of the 
 Sky,           Bleeding into the blue 
                 We twist beneath

 Sun,

I'm pretty sure this tab is right, it took me about two hours to tab, the

Acid Bath - When the Kite String Pops
New Death Sensation

Should be right, this is how I play it & it sounds perfect.
Tuned a whole step down. (Don't really have to though, still sounds good in standard or 1/2)

The order goes as follows:
Riff1 2X, Riff2 1X, Riff3 1X, Riff1 1X, Riff3 1X, Chord, Riff1 2X, Riff2 1X,
Riff3 1X, Chord, Riff4 1X, then Riff5 played over Riff4. Listen to the song & you'll
get it. It's simple but sounds awesome. All played in ACOUSTIC.

Lyrics:
Verse:
let the blackness rool on
mother's cool reptillan womb
ain't so cold tonight
my fingers trace the exit wounds by graveyard light
there's bone dust in my throat and everything is dead
but it's all right
take it easy
you bleed so easy

Chorus:
bleed me an ocean bleed me an ocean tonight 
by electric graveyard light
bleed me an ocean
let me rot beneath the sky
teach me how to die
bleed me an ocean
as the blossom eats the butterfly
can you feel col death that rides up your spine

Interlude

let the blackness roll on
you bleed so easy
let the blckness rool on
i was sexless in the clouds again
i was chasing the cold cold wind
i've become bored with the flesh and bone again
the deepest alone
i was riding the turbulence
an ocean of hades it's all downhill from here
on the outer no where
let the blackness rool on
you bleed so easy
let the blackness rool on
i was stoned as a drone
of blackness that humms
i've become bored with the flesh and bone again
the endless humm of the highway drone
i was riding the turbulance of hades
the taste of dead sex on my tongue
let the blackness roll on
you bleed so easy
let the blackness roll on

Chorus

just like a rain drop
i was born to fall and scale these prison walls
interlude slow
it was over before you were sucked into a vacum
of this universal tomb

Verse little speed

old blossom dies
like a young man breathes
the insect hum with thier hunger and grieve
an icon of pale bone
static white dream
blind in the wilderness
everybody scream
i couldn't find my way out the door
we all died
woke up on the floor
i ride the painted whore she gives good universal screamms
mute
i ride the painted whore she gives good universal screams

Verse

i ride the painted whore she gives good universal screams
oh yeah
