	  		Hi everybody!! 
I'm not a good tabber and this is my first try. Please feel free to email your comments, 
suggestions, corrections etc. etc. etc. ([email protected] 
This is one of my fav songs off the new album. Sorry I left the solo part out but I 
haven't figured that out yet. Anyone can help?? 
 
 
 Intro: A F#m Bm E 
 
 {verse 1: acoustic guitar} 
 
  A  			   F#m 
 Take away the sensation inside  
  Bm			     E 
 Bittersweet migraine in my head  
       A				F#m 
 It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind  
 Bm			      E 
 I can't take this feeling anymore

Lyrics: 
 
Take away the sensation inside  
Bittersweet migraine in my head  
It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind  
I can't take this feeling anymore  
 
Drain the pressure from the swelling,  
The sensation's overwhelming,  
Give me a kiss goodnight and  
everything will be alright  
Tell me that I won't feel a thing  
So give me novacaine  
 
Out of body and out of mind  
Kiss the demons out of my dreams  
I get the funny feeling, that's alright  
Jimmy says it's better than air,  
I'll tell you why  
 
Drain the pressure from the swelling,  
The sensations overwhelming,  
Give me a kiss goodnight and  
everything will be alright,  
Tell me that I won't feel a thing,  
So give me novacaine  
 
Oh novacaine  
 
Drain the pressure from the swelling,  
The sensations overwhelming  
Give me a kiss goodnight and  
everything will be alright,  
Tell me, Jimmy, I won't feel a thing,  
So give me novacaine
