|-------------------| |-------------------| |---SPECIAL-NEEDS---| |-------------------| |-------------------| BAND: Placebo SONG: Special Needs ALBUM: Sleeping With Ghosts I'm pretty sure this is 99.99% correct, especially the main riff and the bridge. Brian uses his Gibson SG for this amazingly eerie song. As with all of my tabs, I will base it upon the studio and the live version of the song. To get the best effect, use a little delay and a bit of reverb.

Just nineteen, a sucker's dream, I guess I thought you had the flavour, Just nineteen, and dreams obscene, with six months off for bad behaviour. Remember me when you clinch your movie deal, And think of me in my chair that has four wheels, Remember me through flash photography and screams, Remember me... special dreams. Just nineteen, a sucker's dream, I guess I thought you had the flavour, Just nineteen, and dreams obscene, with six months off for bad behaviour, Just nineteen, a sucker's dream, I guess I thought you had the flavour, Just nineteen, and dreams obscene, with six months off for bad behaviour, Remember me... Just nineteen, a sucker's dream, I guess I thought you had the flavour, Just nineteen, and dreams obscene, with six months off for bad behaviour, Just nineteen, a sucker's dream, I guess I thought you had the flavour, Just nineteen, and dreams obscene, with six months off for bad behaviour, Remember me...
