Try adding an extra finger to the 8 and 5 on the chorus.

Just wanted to say awesome job on the tab, and that skillet is the bomb.

jesusrocks1219 - 2005-01-24

Skillet kicks butt. Can't wait to see the them on the Collide tour.

CGCFAD or Bust - 2005-02-02

Just to let everyone know I talk to Skillet in general but more so Ben Kasica all the time ... we keep in touch through email ... but anyways .. Ben wants me to tell everyone a little secret ... he plays C on the album but live he drops in down to B ... so it sounds even better live ... and this is one of the best song on the album .. questions/comments/critique .. email me at ricerocketplaya@hotmail.com
later

Just a little note, It's not genreally called Dropped C#, It's called Dropped Db ya know since C#=Db.

guitarfreaker - 2005-04-06

It can be called either drop C# or drop db. It works either way give the guy a break.

JohnM - 2005-04-09

Yeah, it can. Drop Db is a little more appropriate, because it's a combination of Flat (half step down) and Drop-D, hence Drop Db ("Drop D, flat").

Also: "(probably the coolest part in the song)" got that right. i love the bridge part..

sXcountry - 2005-07-17

i like to make the 10 and 9 in the intro octaves:
G|--10-----9
D|--x--and-x
A|--8------7
i think it sounds cooler, more tone
sweet, though, i like it better than the other one...

^dying2live^ - 2006-09-29

I gave skillet my autograph..lol. Good Job

Guitar4God_22 - 2009-03-11

Does anyone know where to find tab for the solo of My Obsession. The solos only on the domatose comes alive version of the song. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
