Song: Passive Agressive
By: Placebo
Album: Black Market Music

This is a song you can play on standard tuning, with a capo on 2nd fret, or you can tune your 
6th. string up 1 step (to F#), but it a lot of pressure on it, so I prefer just sticking a capo
on 2nd. fret.

||CAPO ON 2ND FRET||
*This tab is relative to capo position. (1st. fret = 3th fret; 2nd. fret = 4th. fret, etc)
STANDARD TUNING = (E A D G B E)

||INTRO||
*delay, chorus, and dirty guitar

*On the third repetition of the chorus you can hear a riff, done by an e-bow, but you can do it without
it. Just listen carefully. 
*Add delay and chorus here.
