Everlast
This is "So Long" by Everlast off of the "End of Days" soundtrack. It's pretty simple, the hardest part is lining up the chords with the lyrics.

Key:

* let ring
/ slide
H hammer on
P pull off
% base note only

guitar one: acoustic guitar, standard tuning
guitar two: electric w/ distorion, drop D tuning 

Intro: 
Gtr. 1

A:-------0*-----------------------------------------
E:0*------------3*----------------------------------


Verse: Em Am G

Chorus: Am/C/G/F

Outro: Am/C/G/C


That's the basic song structure. Now, here's the lyrics w/the chords. I tried my best to line up the chords with the exact part of the word, but it's not entirely accurate


         Em
I knew a man with a son
bought him a gun
   Am                          G
he learned shorty just how to use it
           Em
taught him huntin' and skinin' 
right from the beginin'
    Am                      G
built himself a mighty fine killer (killer)
     Em
but shorty got picked on
beat on and kicked on
    Am                            G
and all his classmates wanted to punk him
        Em
so with tears in his eye
and the catcher in the rye
  Am                            G
and he told his old man he went huntin' (huntin')
          Em
he never felt so free
like his destiny
     Am                  G
lay somewhere out on the horizon
     Em
it's hard when you're cold
he felt a hundred years old
    Am&                          G&
and started pulling back on the trigger

Chorus:
Gtr. 1 & Gtr. 2

Am                      C   
Think I'm gonna die today
G                             F
Everyone that hurt me's gonna pay
Am                                   C
How could such a short time feel so long?
G                                    F
How could such a young life go so wrong?

Bridge:

Gtr. 1: strum Em 4 times. 
After that, Gtr. 2 hit (hard) the low D string 3 times. Then to verse 2

verse 2:
Gtr. 1

Em
See me hear me
           Am                  G
but don't touch me, you should fear me
         Em                                Am
cuz I'm clearly... cuz I'm seriously distrubed
           G
that's my word
               Em*
don't wake my mother
just wake my brother
                Am                        G  
cuz i found another who want to play sucker
                Em
and I ain't the one 
who put shade in your sun
                    Am                    G
and took all your shine... watch me get mine
              Em*
feel how it burns
to pay for my sins
                  Am
watch the world turn
               G
inside the beginin'
              Em
losses and wins
angels and demons
            Am                   G
dancin' on top of the head of a pin
                      Em
don't know where I'm goin'

but I know where I been
                 Am                G
Can't hear a sound, clap me for pound
                Em
I came to get down                 
I came to get dirty
                 Am&        G&
I came to get even (even, even even)

Chorus

Outro:
Gtr. 1
Gtr. 2 (clean)

Am                 
Please mama don't cry
C                 
Please mama don't cry
G                                      F
Please mama don't cry you did nothing wrong


repeat w/o lyrics 1 time. End on F.
